I have an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS server that is directly connected to our Comcast Business Gateway modem and I have configured it with 1 of our 5 allotted Static IPs. My other machines on our LAN can connect to this server (via ssh, web, ping, etc.) but I cannot access this server from outside our network, and this machine cannot get out to the internet either (ping google.com fails with unknown host).
Here is my /etc/networking/interfaces file:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 173.162.54.19
netmask 255.255.255.248
broadcast 173.162.54.23
gateway 173.162.54.22
and my /etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver 68.87.77.130
nameserver 68.87.72.130
output from sudo route -n:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
173.162.54.16 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.248 U 0 0 0 eth0
0.0.0.0 173.162.54.22 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 eth0
I have a Windows 2008 machine with an almost identical Static IP, static DNS setup and it works correctly, can access it within the LAN and also from public internet, the Windows machine and the Ubuntu machine are both directly connected to the Comcast Business Gateway.
I have tried rebooting Ubuntu, rebooting my Comcast modem, but nothing seems to make it work. I'm an Ubuntu noob, is there some other config I need to apply to make this work?
UPDATE: Yes I am able to ping my default gateway 173.162.54.22
