Hello all,

I'm trying to open port 25 on my firwall which is a PIX 506E, because i'm going to be hosting my own mail servers. The lines i'm adding to open the port are as follows.

static (inside,outside) 66.66.66.64 192.168.0.16 netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
static (inside,outside) 66.66.66.65 192.168.0.17 netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0
access-list outside permit tcp any host 66.66.66.64 eq 25
access-list outside permit tcp any host 66.66.66.65 eq 25

I'm using dummy IPs here. When I add these lines, I lose access to the internet through Internet Explorer. But still able to access email, using Outlook. Server 192.168.0.16 is also running an intertal DNS server which has forwarders to DNS servers outside.

Please HELP!! I need this port to be open and working ASAP. It will be very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

PS: Please let me know if you need anyother information to understand my problem.
 
Assign it:

IE:

static (inside,outside) 66.66.66.64 192.168.0.16
access-list fromoutside permit tcp any host 66.66.66.64 eq smtp
access-group fromoutside in interface outside
 
Thanks! I actually found the problem. I had a typo in the ips! But not it all works!

Thanks!
