Hi,

SMTP from external IP addresses (e.g. anything other than 127.0.0.1)

the default firewall, FirewallD, rather than iptables?
Hi, this is most interesting!

First of all I didn't realize there is a Firewall on by default - sorry for that, but this is my first Fedora Server ...

I already worked out that firewalld is running
	# systemctl status firewalld	
   	Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/firewalld.service;
 	enabled)
   	Active: active (running) since Do 2015-04-09 15:41:29 CEST;
	26min ago
	[...]
and added smtp to the list of permitted services - as you said it wasn't there before. Now I have prmanently
	# firewall-cmd --zone=public --list-services
	dhcpv6-client mdns smtp ssh

Of course postfix still doesn't work, but at least I have learned something :-)

How do I find out if iptables is doing anything? I can run the command - does that mean there is a second firewall?

Greetings

Peter

If so:

"sudo firewall-cmd --get-services" will list supported services.  SMTP
should be on the list.
"sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --list-services" will list permitted
services in the public zone.  SMTP should also be on the list.
"sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=smtp" will temporarily
add SMTP to the permitted services if not present above.
"sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=smtp" will
make that change permanent (survive a reboot).

If you are using iptables, then you can check the rules with:

"sudo iptables --list-rules"

You should have an entry that reads something like:

"-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 25 --tcp-flags SYN,RST,ACK SYN -j ACCEPT"

If not, you can add it by editing the file "/etc/sysconfig/iptables",
adding the line above to the INPUT chain, then reloading the rules
with the command "sudo iptables-restore < /etc/sysconfig/iptables".

Hi everyone,

please do excuse my unspecific subject - I don't really know what my
problem is yet.

I set up a Postfix-Server on my Fedora 21 box, which is connected to
the internet via
some Netgear Router. My private LAN is 192.168.10.0/24 with the Fedora
box fixed on
192.168.10.1 . My Netgear thing has got a fixed IP and hostname, let's say for
mydomain.com .

Now I can
   - send myself mails from my Fedora box
   - send mails from my Fedora box to the outside p. ex. my googlemail account

but I can't receive mails from outside.

When I do a
     # tcpdump -n -i any tcp port 25
on my Fedora I can see many messsages like

10:34:09.338691 IP 212.227.17.11.64945 > 192.168.10.1.smtp: Flags [S],
seq 3273717964, win 14600, options [mss 1418,sackOK,TS val 1273019143
ecr 0,nop,wscale 9], length 0
10:34:10.339378 IP 212.227.17.11.64945 > 192.168.10.1.smtp: Flags [S],
seq 3273717964, win 14600, options [mss 1418,sackOK,TS val 1273019393
ecr 0,nop,wscale 9], length 0
[...]

Any good ideas, what else I can do to analyze my problem?

Thanks for your answers

Peter
