connecting my server to comcast

Hi,

I just setup a server running centos 4 that I am going to use for a mail server. I setup NAT in my router to open up the smtp port and i assigned the server a static ip address using ifconfig. Now is there a step im missing because now i cant route out of the server or ping anything? Oh btw i also setup the gateway using ifconfig.

Thanks in advanced!
