aliases
Hello, I have take a sendmail alias file to use for my aliases. I have added '| fastforward -d /etc/aliases.cdb' to the .qmail-default file in my /var/qmail/aliases directory. I am using system account and I can create a alias for a account that does not reside on my server in the system accounts. For example: I have [EMAIL PROTECTED] going to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . This works correct, however, I have a account bob which is a system account on my server. I have a alias in /etc/aliases to wich is [EMAIL PROTECTED] going to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I can't recieve the mail for the account because it ends up in /var/spool/mail/bob. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Cliff
User Dir
Hello, Just wondering due to some testing I have done, it looks as though qmail only will except mail for a user with 1) and home dir in the password file 2) chown username /home/mail/dirofuser Is there any way for qmail to bypass looking for a home directory? I could be wrong about anything I have listed above, but from my testing this appears to be correct. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Cliff Cole
RE: tcpserver
Hello,
Yes, I do have rcpthosts in my control directory. I have tried it
both with and without the file. I still have not figured out why this
thing is still allowing relaying. If there are any other suggestion
please let me know
Thanks

You are missing the /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts file. That file MUST be
present and should contain the domains listed in locals and virtualdomains
as well as any domains for which you are acting as a secondary MX.
Then you will need to set RELAYCLIENT="" for all IPs which you wish to
allow relaying for.
This is covered in the FAQ that came with qmail as well as at
www.qmail.org and Dave Sill's excellent 'Life With qmail".

Hello again,
After some testing, it appears that adding the ':deny' string it
will deny EVERYTHING comming into port 25 even othe MTA's. I removed
:deny and it now allows ALL IP's to relay from my server. Any other
suggestion I may try?
Thanks,

If you want tcpserver to only allow some hosts, you would do something like
this
(Look at http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/tcprules.html for more info)
192.168.0.xxx:allow
192.168.0.yyy:allow
:deny
this has to be "compiled" by tcprules of course.

Subject:tcpserver
Hello,
Forgive me for such a stupid question, I have been having problems
with tcpserver NOT denying IP address. I have only entered a few IP
classes into the tcp.smtp file, I have updated it using tcprules, and I
also have '-x tcp.smtp.cdb' flagged in the startup of smptd. Yet is still
does not deny any type of IP address. Has anyone else experienced this
problem, I have tried everything I can think of to resolve this
problem. I have reinstalled tcpserver. remove and recreated the .cdb
file, anyone have any tips that would help?
Best Regards,
Cliff Cole

RE: tcpserver
Hey, That configuration appears to work! I was using the string for the tcp.smtp. '12.34.56.78:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""' I must have not got a clear explaination for the flag RELAYCLIENT. Thanks for your help!
