Problem:

I cannot ping from my home network to the outside world. (Internal pings
work fine)
It's possible that IPcop is blocking these - check in some advanced networking section (sorry I have Smoothwall instead)


We use IPCop 1.4.1 and a Dlink ADSL modem

On my Gentoo server my resolv.conf file looks like this...
domain fisher
nameserver 192.168.10.1
nameserver 210.55.12.1
nameserver 210.55.12.2
don't you just love ISPs who have DNS servers on the same subnet?!

search fisher

Anyone have any ideas?
Do I have to enter DNS addresses into IPCop?
it sure helps IF ipcop is your gateway which almost certainly it is


And I do apologise for not using Google for this but as I mentioned above - I don't know what I don't know.

Thanks, Rob

no worries - you might not know everything but you can work on it
