Hi. I am werry mew with sme server and got a problem. The instalation went fine, but whwn I should configurere the server I got รก problem. I set it up as a server and gateway. The computer is behind a zyxel router. The problem is when I should write the server gateway adress SME will not accept my routers gateway adress. I have the adresses on the local net as 10.0.x.x and my IP adress on the internet id 217.157.x.x. Sme wil not accept 10.0.0.1 but wil have the adres like 217.x.x.x.

At last Sorry for the langue, but my english is werry bad

In that configuration you would usually set your sme in server only mode.
Then forward ports in your router to the sme server.

If you want to use the sme server in server and gateway mode, then configure your router to act as a bridged modem, and disable all other functionality eg gateway, DHCP, login client etc that is in the router.

See the manual
