    I found that my firewall settings were the matter with my web service not working, and finally got that going. Now I am trying to tackle iChat, Mail, and VPN servers. I have had no luck with any of them, I have tried turning on all the obvious ports in the firewall services, and I always get error messages.
    The VPN connection from Internet connect when asking for my kerberos password, it says ‘Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested realm’
    Mail when I try to send out, the log says something to the effect of relay access denied
    and iChat server says ‘could not connect to server’.
    I am assuming that since my web services work, and DNS seems to be working properly that I have the server set up correctly, it is just a matter of configuring the firewall.?.
    Any tips would be helpful.
    Thanks

    Try going into Server Admin->Selected Server->Firewall->Settings->Logging and select ‘Enable logging’ and ‘Log all denied packets’, you can then go into the Log tab of Firewall and filter to show only Deny entries to see what ports clients are trying to connect to.

    You may want to turn off logging of denied packets after you have solved your issue since the log can fill up quickly after a while.
