[CLUE-Tech] After DSL upgrade - some wierd problems

[Mark Gibson]

I recently upgraded my DSL connection through qwest.  I replaced my 675
with a Zoom x5.  After I got the X5 configured, everything worked
relatively well.  But I do have a few odd things happening that I can't
seem to reslove.

1)  Access to my server from outside my line drops on average 4-5 times
a week.  That is, I can still browse the internet from my lan, but when
I try to get to my box remotely, I can't.  I host a few web sites I
can't get to, and I can't ssh into my box - the connection eventually
times out.  Once I reboot the zoom everything works fine.  Nothing in my
system logs or the zoom log helps.

2) I can't "get to" my server from within my lan.  If I try 'ssh
my.domain.name.com' I get:

ssh: connect to address 206.124.xx.xxx port 22: Connection refused

But I can get to it by doing 'ssh 192.168.1.1'.  I can also successfully
ssh to my box remotely.

I'll readily admit I'm a little confused about how my network should be
configured with the zoom and it's 4 ethernet ports. I understood things
much better with the 675 and a hub.  Is eth1 on server1 redundant now?


Here's my setup:

Internet -> Zoom -> [eth1] server1
            Zoom -> [eth0] server1
            Zoom -> [eth0] server2
            Zoom -> [eth0] server3

server1$ /sbin/ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:04:5A:4F:39:8A
          inet addr:10.0.0.6  Bcast:255.255.255.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

Any help is appreciated.

BTW, was anyone charged an installation fee by QWEST when they upgraded
they're dsl?

Thanks,
