Would you share the IP segmentation on all networks, linksys , router etc. On Mon, Aug 15, 2011 at 1:54 PM, John Doe Smith Kamau KipNg'etich Jones < skunkworks.ku@gmail.com> wrote:

... ok. Lets get to the same pciture... The client-comps and the server are on the same sub-net. The public IP is on the router-interface, and u've setup port-forwarding to forward email & web traffic from the router to the server... right?... ama u've pulled off some neat tricks :-)
.... do a trace route... follow the breadcrumbs. see where local requests for the server are going.
... and where are the pro-skunks to comment?!

The setup works fine when a Cisco linksys is in place, but fails when a Cisco 881 is replaced in the place of Linksys. Mapping done, everything looks the same way on both routers. I don't think 881 come with inbuilt firewall?

ei... this is quite peculiar. internet access works... but not LAN access.
i'm a n00b... but i'd say its the firewall. i'm its been mis-configured. I dont think has anything to do with NAT-ing... unless u have two subnets, NAT cant be the issue. If the client comps and the are connected to the same switch, then the mail server may have been mis-configured to drop local-IPs... may be a mis-type was made somewhere.... like 192.168.*1* instead on 192.168.*0*... something like that. If the client machines can ping that server, then it must be some misconfiguration somewhere...
