Yeah I'd already tried MAC address cloning. I also went away for a week and left both the router and the modem switched off, which should have cured that problem were that the cas…

Have you tried updating the router firmware? If the old firmware is corrupted, that might solve the problem.

I'm going to be switching from DSL to Cable, and in doing so I'm gonna lose my static IP. Since I run a server, I'm going to need a dynamic dns service, and I'm wondering which th…

Try ZoneEdit (www.zoneedit.com). They'll cover you on both counts.

http://www.dyndns.org I've used them for about 4 years, they're great. I think it's $20 a year to use your own domain, so that doesn't qualify under your free requirement, but $2…

Alright here it goes... I have a airport express router. I have a powerbook G4. I would like to SSH into the powerbook G4 from a remote location, ie my Hiptop with Terminal. …

Go to http://www.whatismyip.com and find your EXTERNAL IP address. Now when you're remote SSH to this IP. That IP is the one which your router has been assigned by your ISP.

Hey all, here's a problem for the most experienced of Networkers. We've got a small office with five Macs running Mac OS X 10.4.2, all Software updates applied as of October 17, …

Go into the DL setup program to the Status page and make a note of the IP addresses for your ISP's primary and secondary domain name servers (DNS). Enter these numbers on separate …

John, You are a god. That did the trick. Thank you! You know, I asked Comcast for the DNS numbers, because I thought that would do the trick, and the phone representative refus…

They should remain the same indefinitely

Hi i didnt know if this belongs in networking or ibook, so sorry if its wrong I use my new ibook at home and at school, and I have to totally change the wireless settings on my…

I have a similar problem with my ibook. Any time I try to use it at school, where the wifi network is not broadcast, I have to completely reconfigure the airport to connect to it.…

You can create a new location profile by going to System Preferences/Network. Click the Location button and select New Location. After creating a new profile you need only select…

And this belongs in Networking so there it goes!

Yes I keep having the same problem, first on my 17" G4 and now on a MacBook Pro. I fixed it once on the 17" by completely deleting all network preferences. And it worked fine for a…

I'd like to run my own mail server off my OS X box at home (Panther Server.) Unfortunately my ISP blocks port 25 in order to reduce spam. Is there any way to get around port 25 be…

Unfortunately, there's no easy way to do that. You can easily change the port. Unfortunately, everyone sending mail to you won't know where you've moved to. And outbound will sti…

Thanks for the response. Back when I was on ISDN I ran an email server off my Debian box. Guess that's because it was ISDN- who'd run a spamming business off of that? This articl…

Well that's kind of what I was talking about. You can move off of port 25, but you have to have a relay or some other gateway upstream that does the port 25 to port relay for you.…

I'm using just the static (more or less) IP from my ADSL line. I'm using No-IP to reverse DNS(?) whatever.whatever.net to my IP at home. With ISDN it worked great; just a few chang…

Anyone with a server on the Internet can relay email for you. Maybe you can set up a trade with someone. Could be worth a post on the postfix or sendmail mailing list- you'll probl…

Gavin thanks for the links, I'll check 'em out
