Ok, first of all, I really like the look and feel of this firewall version, but setting up is a bit confusing to say the least.
My problem,
Installed Astaro v6.001 on a PIII 866 256 ram 40 gig HDD with 1x Realtek 8139C 1x Acer ALN-325 NIC.
I used the Acer NIC on eth0 as internal on LAN.
My main problem is setting up second NIC to work without locking me out of the astaro box. The box finds the second card without any problems, and I can add IPs no problems, but usually within seconds of saving config, I am locked out of box, and have to install all over again. All IPs used in my network are static. I configured the internal NIC with the gateway (local) IP of my router for testing/playing. In my "Hardware List" under network stats, it shows both cards with Acer card as eth0 and Realtek card as eth1 as it should be.
If I go to the Interface Status at the top of the page, and select "New" to add/configure the Realtek card, it seems to add it ok, and I use static IP and add my gateway IP (router local IP) once its saved, I am locked out and just reinstall Astaro and start all over again trying different settings.
Can anyone shed some light on what is happening, as it seems like the red (external) card is invisible from being configured, however I realize you must click the "Admin" box for the card to enable it, it just locks me out of the system when I do this. [:(]
