[IPCop-user] confused newbie needs help with routing and/or firewall

[John P. <jpl...@lb...>]

Hi,

I'm at a bit of a loss... I am creating a replacement for our NT box that was doing too much too poorly.  I'm striving to set up IPCop to serve as a firewall and webproxy.  The webproxy works fine.  However, I cannot figure out why I'm unable to utilize an email client or ftp client or even ping out from the green side of my network (I'm green/red only).  I enabled External Service Access for TCP ports 20, 21, 25, 110, and 143...but to no avail.

I would GREATLY appreciate some counsel!  I've read all the documentation on IPCop that I could find.  I'm fairly new to Linux, but do know the basics (I think).  Thank you.

John
