The problem is solved now.
It is not really static but DHCP with a reservation for my MAC address.
I mentioned before maybe that, that I removed the dhcp-client
program. Now, I installed it again. Fortunately, I don't removed it from
/var/cache/apt/archives/ directory.
In /etc/network/interfaces I have now
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
I tried the commands in on command line:
# service networking stop && service networking start
but this freezes the situation; I waiting 2 minutes and after that I
power off and then power on the GW machine.
After that I can login to it with SSH and can see that everything works.
So the problem is solved. Thank you all for help.
However, in this case ISP's closes all ports, but 80.
So, now I have open port 80 only.
But, if I want to setup on this server an LDAP server, then there must
be opened other port too.
Well, one is depend on her/his ISP very much.
