[Leaplist] Calling all IPCop experts ....

[William A. Mahaffey III]

.... I just installed IPCop 1.4.15 on an old AMD 500 MHz K6. I followed 
the install procedure pretty carefully, no wild customizations, simple 
GREEN + RED setup, 2 different NICs, both apparently correctly setup, 
etc. I logged into the box as root & poked around a bit. The console is 
pretty stark, no man or chkconfig installed, etc., so I tried to login 
via browser as they (seem to) recommend. I got 'unable to connect' in 
Firefox from another box (this one, as it happens) on the (supposedly 
GREEN) lan. I verified correct network cable hookups by swapping the 
supposedly GREEN LAN cable to the other NIC card & pinging, got a bunch 
of syslog messages about packets dropped on the RED interface, so I 
switched the cable back and appear to be stuck :-). I can't ping the box 
from any other boxen on the GREEN lan & can't get logged in via browser 
to verify setups, etc. The iptables setup on that box is quite 
elaborate, & difficult to post since I can't get into it :-). Any clues 
for me ? TIA ....
