Re: Server-Urgent Plz

 

Hello.

This it seems to be a firewall problem and/or route problem.

I thing that the name of the NIC changed with the substitution of the NIC;
And the firewall script still uses the old NIC names.

Do as Patrick suggests.  If you can not follow him I give you more options:
- Skype with me (orvaquim)
- Find some Linux guys from LinuxforAfrica in Tanzania (If you are
interested on this I can find the contact)

Good Lucky
