Firewall Test

Security test
« on: March 25, 2002, 05:05:35 PM »
I went to this site www.pcflank.com and I could not believe it when I did a test on the e-smith box.
The test was about to reveal my ip address, to my surprise the website showed my internal ip address 192.168.x.x I  was shocked.  I thought the whole idea of this e-smith firewall was to hide my internal ip address.
Does anyone know why this happened?

Thanks,
Jehu.

it is because of the proxy on 5.1.2, that is on by default
search the boards and u will find how to turn it off
i turned mine off last week

Don't forget that nobody from outside can connect to 192.168.x.x, because it's not getting routed on the net !
