cant access zm web interface from another computer

I have installed zm on mageia successfully: everything works fine except the communication with the external world :
I can generate many alerts by moving in front of the camera but:

ftp : nothing is transferred
email : nothing is sent

though i have carefully configured both

and even from another computer on the same LAN (thus there should be no problem with my isp firewall , right?) i'm not able to access the web zm interface: i thought it would work just with

ipadress/zm/ where ipadress is a local LAN adress of the computer where zm is installed

Thank you if someone has an idea of what i did wrong...

and there is also a recurrent error in the logs : gettimeofday() ... it's not safe to rely on system time zone setting...

Have no idea where does this come from

Apparently, the machine where zm is installed is not pingable from the other machine on the LAN...(!?) yet i can access the internet from this machine and nmap says that the only open port is 80...
i suspect something in the iptables but it's really for expert...i understand nothing at all of the result of typing: iptables -L

OK the remote access problem is solved , the firewall was not configured properly ... i'm going to try again the email and ftp
