United Colo - is this right?
Hi guys, i have recently bought a new dedicated server with United Colo - the $99 special, just to get me started.
There are a few (maybe newbish) questions I have, and wondered whether you guys can give us some answers
1. All I have is the bare bones server with Linux installed. Now when I tryed to ftp some stuff up onto my server, I could only connect to FTP servers by IP address, not by domain name. Is this beause I have to set up some DNS stuff?
2. Cant Ping Server -- I can SSH into the server fine, but can not ping the server or tracert to it. Suppose this is due to a firewall. Now how do I turn this off? Is it UnitedColo network side? Or something to do with Linux.
Thanks in advance guys

firewall is on unitedcolo's side. don't know if you can do anything about it - you'll need to call/e-mail them and ask.
