Title: Blocking external access to server
Post by: Juan Jose V. on July 11, 2002, 02:24:52 AM

I have an e-smith server like mail and web server and I want that an external office access through a DSL connection with a fixed IP.
 
I would like to know if it would be possible to block the access to the server and allow external access to only that IP.

Thanks in advance. JJ.

I suppose you could set all your access to private (i.e. private ssh, ftp, mail etc etc) and create a local network with a netmask of 255.255.255.255 allowing only a single IP to access the machine...
