stupid question possibly...


I am using Fedora Core 2. I have it all setup using one NIC, connected to a Linksys router using DHCP. I have another NIC installed and I would like to use a static IP that I have been assigned.

Is it possible that I can surf the internet via the router and then just have my hosted domain with www, email, ftp, ssh on the static IP?

I wasn't quite sure how to look this up. I don't think what I am trying to do is multicasting or IP aliasing.


Thanks for any tips you may have.

The answer is yes, no and it depends. :-)

I assume since you are behind a linksys router that your linksys is doing some sort of firewall function and you are natted to some private ip block, i.e. 10., 172.16. or 192.168.

If this is true, then you need to setup port forwarding in your linksys to forward hits on www, email, ftp, ssh to the static ip only.
