hi Mark, ssh runs on port 22, so if you want to ssh into your machine, open port 22 on your router and forward it to the internal ip of your Mandrake box.
to give my take on your original question, you can use the following combination for your webmail. Mail Transport Agent - postfix Imap - courier Web server - apache Webmail - squirrelmail as always there are alternatives, but this combination was suggested for simplicity of installation and availability of rpms for Mandrake. remember you may also have to perform the forwarding on your router for port 80 (for webmail) and port 25 (for postfix) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Annandale" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 12:30 AM Subject: Re: [newbie] Dynamic IP On Tuesday 03 Dec 2002 4:23 pm, Nikunj Bansal wrote: > Well, I have a somewhat similar situation and I have > an account for Dynamic DNS with tzo.com.

I can do port forwarding with my router, just wasn't sure about what ports to use - or how to use SSH - any pointers :-) ? regards Mark A ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com >
