Hi all Kinda new to this list I've been a Mac user for 2 years. I have a home network set up for over a year. I have Dsl modem connected to Linksys 1 port router. Then uplinked to a 5 port switch and uplinked to another 5 port switch that has 2 5 port hub's off of it. The Linksys is set up for DHCP. anyway the network is working fine.
I know a similar setup has been recently been discussed. But I'm trying to set up a web server from my G4 QuickSilver. The webserver is set up and running just fine I can access it from an internal address. I have set up port forwarding port 80 for the QS. but can not access from outside address. Now the Linksys book say's to use port forwarding I must manually assign address. So it won't work with DHCP Ok so I disabled the DHCP on the router and then put in address on the computers and rebooted and I then lose internet access but can still access the router. Am I missing something here or does it have to be done in certain steps? I've always had the router set up for DHCP so I have no experience setting up with manually assigned address. Please Help Thank's Lou Oh the network has 8 Mac's, 5 Windows pc's, and 1 pc w/Linux -- MacNetwork is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
