Hi,=20
I'm sorry if my question is not directly related to the development of =
WhiteBoxLinux. But, since I'm new to all this, I just need a hint on =
where to search for answers.=20

I have downloaded and installed the latest version (3.0a) of WBEL. What =
I want to achieve with this box is to make it a primary DNS server for =
my domain names. It connects to the Internet from behind a firewall (SME =
e-smith server). I set up the SME server to forward port 53 to the WBEL =
server and configured one domain as a test.=20

However, when I test if the hosting of my test domain name from outside =
my network, there will be no result. Now, my question is what could be =
the problem with my configuration. Any suggestions, please.=20

Best regards,
David
