Hi Angelo, Connection timed out with localhost.localdomain.mydomainname.com<http://localhost.localdomain.mydomainname.com>. it does mean sure this host can not be found by ur send mail. 1) Can u try with nslookup command and check localhost.localdomain.mydomain name.com <http://name.com>. is able to relove or not.. this is only problem. Basically it should search mydomain.com <http://mydomain.com> only. if possbile can u paste here DNS forward zone and reverse file also. 2) if possible try to telnet from other network and check it telnet mydomain.com <http://mydomain.com> 25 and telnet mydomain.com<http://mydomain.com>110 i hope u will get it..if not check with u firewall rool.( checked u r rule but tht is not issue. but at least 1 time u can check ) Cheers On 5/14/05, angelo l <angelohl@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > ===========THE CONFIGURATION======(problem at bottom) > > *==Internet==* > | > | > ______|____________________ > | Firewall | > |21 open to 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> | > |22 open to 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> | > |25 open to 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> | > |80 open to 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> | > |110 open to 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> | > |113 open to 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> | > |__________________________| > | > ______|_______________________________ > | Server | > |Eth0 (116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2>) | > | (iptables - ipv4 fowarding enabled)| > |Eth1 (10.12.1.1 <http://10.12.1.1>) | > |_____________________________________| > > 1) I can ping th===========THE PROBLEM=============e address from eth0 to > eth1 and vice versa with no problem, internet access from addresses on the > eth1 subnet is no problem either. > 2) On the server the only files I have edited are listed here (verbatim): > > ***/etc/mail/sendmail.cw contains: > mail > > ***/etc/mail/sendmail.mc contains: > divert(-1)dnl > include(`/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4')dnl > VERSIONID(`setup for Red Hat Linux')dnl > OSTYPE(`linux')dnl > define(`confDEF_USER_ID',``8:12'')dnl > define(`confTRUSTED_USER', `smmsp')dnl > define(`confTO_CONNECT', `1m')dnl > define(`confTRY_NULL_MX_LIST',true)dnl > define(`confDONT_PROBE_INTERFACES',true)dnl > define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail')dnl > define(`ALIAS_FILE', `/etc/aliases')dnl > define(`UUCP_MAILER_MAX', `2000000')dnl > define(`confUSERDB_SPEC', `/etc/mail/userdb.db')dnl > define(`confPRIVACY_FLAGS', `authwarnings,novrfy,noexpn,restrictqrun')dnl > define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl > define(`confDONT_BLAME_SENDMAIL',`groupreadablekeyfile')dnl > define(`confTO_IDENT', `0')dnl > FEATURE(`no_default_msa',`dnl')dnl > FEATURE(`smrsh',`/usr/sbin/smrsh')dnl > FEATURE(`mailertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable.db')dnl > FEATURE(`virtusertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable.db')dnl > FEATURE(redirect)dnl > FEATURE(always_add_domain)dnl > FEATURE(use_cw_file)dnl > FEATURE(use_ct_file)dnl > FEATURE(local_procmail,`',`procmail -t -Y -a $h -d $u')dnl > FEATURE(`access_db',`hash -T<TMPF> -o /etc/mail/access.db')dnl > FEATURE(`blacklist_recipients')dnl > EXPOSED_USER(`smmsp')dnl > FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX')dnl > LOCAL_DOMAIN(`localhost.localdomain')dnl > MASQUERADE_AS(`mydomainname.com')dnl > dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost)dnl > dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost.localdomain)dnl > dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(mydomainalias.com <http://mydomainalias.com>)dnl > dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(mydomain.lan)dnl > MAILER(smtp)dnl > MAILER(procmail)dnl > > ***/etc/mail/access contains: > localhost.localdomain RELAY > localhost RELAY > 127.0.0.1 <http://127.0.0.1> RELAY > 116.168.1.2 <http://116.168.1.2> RELAY > mydomainname.com <http://mydomainname.com> RELAY > # mail.mydomainname.com <http://mail.mydomainname.com> RELAY > cyberpromo.com <http://cyberpromo.com> REJECT > spam@xxxxxxxxx 550 Spammers shan't see sunlight here > > ***/etc/hosts > 127.0.0.1 <http://127.0.0.1> localhost.localdomain localhost > #116.168.1.2 mail.mydomainname.com <http://mail.mydomainname.com> mail > > ***/etc/mail/local-host-names contains: > localhost > localhost.localdomain > server1.mydomainname.com <http://server1.mydomainname.com> > > ***/etc/named.conf contains: > controls { > inet 127===========THE PROBLEM=============.0.0.1 allow { localhost;
