Separate ADSL modem, USB modem .... and is the IP address of your machine a public address Has a firewall (iptables) been set up ? Is any NATting taking place ? I do not believe it is a DNS problem but feels like a routing/firewall problem Can you get in from outside using IP addresses instead of names ? Cheers John
