Hi,

I have an odd problem that I don't understand and wonder if anyone
can shed some light on it.

Here's the setup:

- 2 systems: one runs SuSE Linux 10.0 and the other openSUSE 10.3
- Four static IP addresses assigned by my ISP (using ADSL)
- An IOGear Ethernet switch connecting the DSL modem to everything
else - A LinkSys WRT54G wireless router / access point w/ 4
hard-wired ports - The 10.0 box has a single ethernet port
connected to the IOGear switch - The 10.3 box has two ethernet
ports, one connected to the IOGear switch (and hence directly to
the Internet) and the other connected by cable to the LinkSys
router
- The router, the 10.0 box and port of the 10.3 box wired directly
to the IOGear switch each have statically configured IP addresses -
Everything accessing the Internet via the LinkSys router / access
point (including a couple of Macs, my TiVO and one of the ports on
the 10.3 box) use DHCP.


The problem (as far as I know, the _only_ problem with the whole
setup) is that I cannot connect from the Internet to the 10.3 box
using it's global, routable IP address, though there's no problem
doing the same with the 10.0 box.

Furthermore, computers connected wirelessly to the LinkSys access
point _can_ access the 10.3 box _using the global, routable IP
address_.


Can anyone tell me what might be wrong with the configuration and
how I might fix it so that the 10.3 box can be reached from the
global Internet?


Thanks.

Randall Schulz

Ok text pictures....

No, that's not the set-up.
