Thankz for letting me know we get dat fixed ASAP.... Now i have another question, I finally got sendmail to recongnize gc-site.hopto.org ( i think ) I telnet gc-site.hopto.org 25 and the servers version comes out but when i do localhost 25 nuthin comes out. N-e-wayz i edited the access and threw in there gc-site.hopto.org RELAY aswell as 67.34.177.240 RELAY but from what i'm seeing in the logz it's only Relaying for localhost. How can i change this ?? Wat i think is going on is that since 127.0.0.1 is the only authorized relay it's blocking everything else. I edited sendmail.mc like Jeff said (thnkz) and wat happened waz : I changed it from 127.0.0.1 to 67.34.177.20 and i couldn't get no mail wat so ever so i added both ( Not sure if thats correct ) and i'm getting local mail. Please give me all suggestions and comments thankz :) Damien On Wed, 2004-09-22 at 21:02, Ed Greshko wrote: > On Thu, 2004-09-23 at 05:43, Damien Estrada wrote: > > OMG Thank you... i knew that my dns setting where correct.... what i > > think the problem is dat sendmail is not listening to my address > > 67.34.177.240 which is static. > > FWIW, you have some unnecessary information in your DNS. > > You have 2 MX entries: > > [egreshko@gangster tmp]$ host -t mx gc-site.hopto.org > gc-site.hopto.org mail is handled by 5 mail.gc-site.hopto.org. > gc-site.hopto.org mail is handled by 10 gc-site.hopto.org. > > but.... > > [egreshko@gangster tmp]$ host mail.gc-site.hopto.org > mail.gc-site.hopto.org has address 67.34.177.240 > > and > > [egreshko@gangster tmp]$ host gc-site.hopto.org > gc-site.hopto.org has address 67.34.177.240 > > Are the same..... > > So, if my system has mail for you and your system is down or not > reachable it will try mail.gc-site.hopto.org (fail) and > gc-site.hopto.org (still fail becuase it is the same).....which is > unnecessary. > > > > > > > How do i go about fixing this ?? > > > > > > On Wed, 2004-09-22 at 17:30, Jeff wrote: > > > On Wed, 22 Sep 2004 16:06:37 -0400, Jason Dixon wrote: > > > > On Sep 22, 2004, at 4:02 PM, Damien Estrada wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > >> But when i was running under Windows 2000 Advanced Server with > > > >> the same setting i have now ( except new SMTP and POP Servers ) > > > >> it was working great.

Not sure how many IPs you have or if they're static, but both mail.gc-site.hopto.org and gc-site.hopto.org both point to the same IP so you probably have 1 external IP. > > > > > > Things to check... > > > > > > -Is sendmail listening on your LAN/external IP (i.e. not just 127.0.0.1).
