Mario,

1. Please look at the e-mail that you sent to the list.  Did you notice that 
you included your password for the list?  Perhaps, you want to consider 
changeing it soon???

2. As far as your question goes...You have to enable both Internet to zone and 
zone to Internet traffic.

Internet to zone:
In the "Internet" zone "file transfer" protocol section, you need to enable 
FTP, HTTP and HTTPS.  Agian in the "Internet" zone "Network" protocol, enable 
dns, and ident/auth.  Be sure to enable all of these to the local machine and 
any other zones that you have defined.

zone to Internet:
Repeat the protocol settings each of the zones you have set up above.  Just 
put a check in each box marked "Internet".

That should get you going.

Mark
