some website not accessible on my LAN

i recently observed that users on my network can no longer access all websites, there is no restriction or access list whatsoever.

Also,we can no longer recieve mails from some domains, though they still get emails from us and we still receive from others as well.

what could be the possible causes and the likely solutions.

Which sites can they access and which not? Can they ping the IPs in question? Do the hostnames resolve?

What does "no longer receive mail" mean exactly? How did you find out / what happens instead? Who can send and who cannot? Any error messages in the /var/log logfiles?

We need much more information about your network structure and problems to give any meaningful advice. :)

Howdy,

Yeah, as Locutus mentioned, we'll need some additional info to help dig into that one... it would be especially helpful to have an actual domain name that's having a problem. You can always go back later, edit your post, and remove it, if you don't like the idea of posting your domain names here :-)

Also, is your server on a public IP, perhaps on a DMZ? Or is it using a private IP address?

Thanks!

-Eric
