IIRC there are some ports you need open to get *mule to work properly.
You need to port forward them on your router to the Linux IP address,
and do something like this

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 4662 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 4672 -j ACCEPT
service iptables save

says these are only the default ports, if you changed them you need to
change the iptables lines accordingly.

I don't use emule, just a guess at the problem :-)
