Hi Edgar,

I am not sure what the problem is for your system, but the last time
that I installed a Linux distribution (SuSE 10), I was surprised that
external access to many internet services such as ftp were disabled
by default.  I think this was supposed to be for "security" but it
was very annoying to me. Perhaps you can check to see if these things
work properly outside of Squeak (for example, try ftp and telnet to
your Linux box from some other computer).
