Installing my brand new FSG
A few days ago I received my FSG-250. I installed it as the sole entrance to my ADSL router, so that all internet communication is through the FSG-250.
My goals are:
- to have a file server ready and usable by both linux PCs and the Xp machine
- to use the FSG as a webserver for my network.
- create a way to have imap mail
And maybe I will eventually set up an external connection to my home network both for email and for keeping files.

Installing SSH
I finally got my SSH to work. It turns out for SSH (or other services) to work correctly, you must have all LAN-port-using-computers using the correct subnet as defined in the FSG for LAN. If not SSH will not work.
So now I have my complete network converted from 10.0.0-network to 192.168.1-network. Pity though, because 10.0.0 is easier to remember and easier to type.
Ok, so now, lets get the file serving thingy working and being used.
Working features
Currently I can connect to the internet, without being bothered by the fact that the FSG is in between. My PC and the other PCs needed no reconfiguration after I correctly set things up for the FSG. So the router is working perfectly.
SSH
Alas, it is not all roses on the path to bliss: I can not seem to get SSH connection. Even though I enabled SSH on the FSG the port remains closed. I checked this from my Linux computer using "nmap 192.168.1.1". The output I got showed that port 22 (the one SSH uses) was not open......
SOLVED!!
It turns out I must have the computer on the LAN-port use the same subnet. How simple can things be? As I missed this in the documentation I updated the Howto using SSH.
HTTP
I must assume HTTP is working as I can create directories and all from the web interface. But what I want is my own webserver using the interface I have created. I currently have no idea how to do that......
nmap: weirdness SOLVED
Using nmap from my computer as one of the users registered as user on FSG I get:
Starting Nmap 4.03 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2006-05-28 14:53 CEST Interesting ports on FSG.lan (192.168.1.1): (The 1671 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: filtered) PORT STATE SERVICE 80/tcp open http 1080/tcp open socks 8080/tcp open http-proxy
Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 31.587 seconds
SOLVED!!
Use the correct subnet. The output of "nmap 192.168.1.1" is now:
Starting Nmap 4.03 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2006-06-11 11:40 CEST Interesting ports on FSG (192.168.1.1): (The 1668 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) PORT STATE SERVICE 21/tcp open ftp 22/tcp open ssh 53/tcp open domain 80/tcp open http 139/tcp open netbios-ssn 3306/tcp open mysql
Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.437 seconds
That's better, isn't it?
