sendmail issues resolving certain domains

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have noticed an issue where sendmail can not resolve a domain even though I can dig for it from the same machine.

Some example domains that exhibit this behavior:
okdhs.org
homesspringfield.com
langstongroup.com
republicford.com


Example of issue using okdhs.org as an example:


Digs work fine. Named is running locally as a cache.

Sendmail is unable to resolve the domain. This also happens when trying to send to a problem domain. The mail simply sits in the queue unable to resolve.



[root@smtp01 root]# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 smtp01.gvl-priv.sys.nuvox.net ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.8/8.12.8; Thu, 2 Oct 2003 13:55:03 -0400
helo localhost
250 smtp01.gvl-priv.sys.nuvox.net Hello localhost [127.0.0.1], pleased to meet you
mail from: test@xxxxxxxxx
451 4.1.8 Domain of sender address test@xxxxxxxxx does not resolve



I am running the following versions:


bind-9.2.1-16
sendmail-8.12.8-9.90

Any ideas? This is causing problems for our customers and I am beating my head against the wall trying to figure out what is wrong. I recently switched to rh9 from rh7.3 and this issue didn't happen on the old servers.

Thanks,
Wiley
