    hey,

    ive had a home network using my smoothwall for a while now, all with WIN systems.

    Im setting up a webserver atm, running Red Hat 7.1.

    using KDE package.

    Network Configuration, then interfaces, ethernet, DHCP, 255.255.255.0 as the mask.

    however, when i try to connect to the smoothwall via the web browser i get connection refused (111).

    i can ping the smoothwall from command line, and im getting error reports from the smoothwall...

    does anybody have any ideas why the smoothwall dosnt like my Linux system?

    thanks,

    have you read the guide to smoothwall??

    also have you configured your smoothwall through any of the windoze machines??
