Can anyone provide a cookbook idea to create a socket/tunnel where by I can use SSH to talk to the SMTP server on the Linux staging box?
Isn't this what the "stunnel" package helps you do? I think it's there to SSL-encrypt other data streams like SMTP, and I'm sure it could be made to communicate via the SSH port. Check the docs for it.
Not exactly what I need.
Here's an idea of the configuration.
DMZ | LAN | win2k.host | linux.host:25 | +--------------+ [webserver] PHP > SMTP-| | o mail server | | +--------------+
I'm only allowed to SSH over the DMZ to the LAN
What I'm after is:
DMZ | LAN
|
win2k.host | linux.host:25
sshsshssh +--------------+
[webserver] PHP-> SMTP--->o mail server |
sshsshssh +--------------+
|Remember, my webservers are running W2K with cygwin.
I need my php script to possibly call a simple SSH tunnelling script.
I'm hacking something I found at http://www.slac.com/~mpilone/projects/kde/kmailssh/
This looks like the ticket, only I'll be:
-L 25:$SSH_MAIL_SERVER:25 in the ssh command. But I need this to be called by PHP I think. The problem as I see it is the PHP script calls the PHP mail() function which in turn uses properties defined in the php.ini file, such as SMTP = your.smtp.host.here
Can I define a script there? That would be the ideal.
Any further ideas are greatly appreciated! Thanks!
