hi there,

i just added some new IPs to my server, but they dont work as intended.

I can ping them from my server, but from the outside the "request timed out".

...after adding an IP, do i have to add them to the Firewall, or could it be that the IPs r not correctly set from my provider?

thanks for ur help,

Duncan McLord

The IPs basic belong to the box that claims them.
Unless, of course, some netmask says otherwise.

If you have a firewall, you'll have to explicitely route these IPs.
