problems configuring EHCP

[chrisbmo2000]

I have EHCP installed on Ubuntu server with 10.4 GUI. I can not get this server to be seen outside my local network. I am a bare bones NOBO to this so laymens terms are best. Should I set the server IP to my ISP ip or do I give it a local IP? like I said I am a NOBO so all the help I can get is great....Thanks in advance

i think your problem is port redirection. did you do port redirection?
follow http://www.ehcp.net/helper/yardim/cat.php?cid=6

ip settings in ehcp gui->options :
dnsip: your external real ip given by your isp
localip: local - internal ip of server.

note that, you may not reach your domains in your internal network, until you update hosts file for other computers, if you are in same network as your server.

ok thanks, I did all that and now I am getting a 169 IP so I have no connection at all.
I redirected the ports and lost my connection, so now what do I need to do?

Did you turn off dhcp on your router?

No because I need dhcp for my other computers. It now has an ip but I still cant get email to go through. I get an IMAP error now. This is really getting frustrating!I also can not access the server any where but on the server. HELP!!!!!!!

Okay so to confirm:

you have a ip on the server- 192 or smthn

in ehcp settings local ip is set as that

dnsip is set you your outside realworld ip? use ipchicken.com to find it out and put it in for the dnsip

as for domain name etc you would point mail records and www to that ip. ie. imap.yourdomain.com would need to be set to your real ip showing in ipchicken.

but.. do you have a static ip from your isp? if not we need to configure a little differently

let me know

Yes my ip gives a static ip. How do I point mail records and www to my ip? and yes to the other questions. my local is 192.168.2.10 and then my dnsip is my static given by my isp.

you dont have to do anything additional,
just setup/add your domain in ehcp, this way, you have done redirection of mail/dns/www records to your ip.

can you give your domain and external ip, so that we may do a quick check ?

also search for "port 587" on this site.
some isp's does block port 25.
