If you're not familiar with networking then I would STRONGLY suggest that you stay well clear of putting your server directly on the Internet. Put it behind a good firewall and play there instead. > I installed [...] debian-40r3-i386-netinst.iso > I was able to ping both IP addresses and domain names.

What is in your /etc/network/interfaces file? 2. Assuming you're using ethernet to connect your server to the world, try "ifup eth0" and tell us what it says.
