Sorry to be a pest... The config docs at http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/CentOS_5_QmailToaster_Install says the following
Make dns entry: BIND - in the your-domain.com zone file (see public.txt for the private._domainkey.your-domain.com entry): _domainkey.your-domain.com. IN TXT "t=y; o=-" Note: This is putting it into test mode. If you are done testing, and want to take it out of testing mode, change the above to reflect below. _domainkey.your-domain.com. IN TXT "o=-" Then also add this to your zone file: private._domainkey.your-domain.com. IN TXT "k=rsa; p=MEwwDQY . . . to end of key" (NOTE QUOTATION MARKS MUST BE THERE) - - - - - - I can replace that with : # yum install caching-nameserver # service start named # chkconfig named on Then put nameserver 127.0.0.1 as the first record in your /etc/resolv.conf file. Add the A and MX records at my registrar and I'm done other than the testing you suggest in the config docs. Thanks again for all your support and guidance! - - - - - On Tue, Apr 26, 2011 at 2:30 PM, Eric Shubert <e...@shubes.net> wrote: > On 04/26/2011 02:08 PM, Scott Hughes wrote: > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Eric Shubert [mailto:e...@shubes.net] >> Sent: Tuesday, April 26, 2011 4:01 PM >> To: qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com >> Subject: [qmailtoaster] Re: using registrar's DNS instead of djbdns or >> Bind >> >> Just set up your authoritative DNS (A,MX) records at your registrar.
