 Thanks guys for answering. Armando, I'm gonna try to write 110 instead of
 pop3 or pop-3 next time.


No prob.

May I suggest you keep sendmail up and run the smtp and pop services on
other ports for testing purposes?

Armando

Now every once in awhile a really slick idea comes about...  Great idea, 
because then you can telnet in to any port and verify functionality of the 
pop checkpasswd  Cool :o)

RE: CNAME_lookup_failed_temporarily._(#4.4.3)

2000-07-13 Thread Steven M. Klass

I finally figured it out.  Let this stand as a record for deja / qmail 
surfers everywhere!!

1.  Can your computer do a nslookup of a FQDN and not yours?
 That needs to be working.
2.  Can you ping a FQDN and an IP
 Thats where I screwed up!  I could easily nslookup anyone but my 
machine had an
 incorrect entry in /etc/resolve.conf

 It need to say somewhere in there

 nameserver 127.0.0.1

That's what the problem was for me!!

Thanks to everyone!

try nslookup anydomain.com 198.6.1.1 (thats using uunet dnsserver)
and see if you get the same response.

you most likely are getting dns problems.

After scouring the qmail posts YOURS comes shining through.

Now I have a weird problem.  Why can I do an nslookup of
anydomain.com and get the ip, but when I ping anydomain.com i get
zilch. Now if I ping the IP of anydomain.com, I get something. What's
goin on around here? Any Ideas?

Again, thanks a million

 This does not mean that your qmail is misconfigured it does mean that your
 dns or the remote dns is misconfigured.
 
 I would doubt you are able to ping the MX for that host you are having
 problems with.

Sorry to tread on holy ground, but which is better.  Some company

Vpopmail - Installation - questions

2000-07-13 Thread Steven M. Klass

Hey all

I just started working with vpopmail and I am in need of answers.

1.  The install guide recommends that all domains be set up as virtual 
domains.  In the qmail/control/locals file I have my domain already 
defined.  How can I convert that to a virtual domain?  Should I?
2.  The option enable-default domain = mydomain   Does this mean it will be 
a virtual domain.  The instructions aren't clear on this.
3.  The option enable-ucspi-dir   I installed this per qmail 
instructions.  I was not aware that a compiled directory existed.  I 
thought only tcpserver was placed in ../bin
4.  What is Option enable-apop.  What is apop?
5.  What happens to my existing default .qmail files for postmaster, etc.
6.  How can I map several names to one address.  With .qmail files it's 
easy (I think).
7.  What tools are needed for vpopmail to work correctly.  I currently have 
installed qmail, uscpi, and daemontools. Anything else.
8.  Should I install qmailadmin before or after vpopmail.
9.  At what point do I enable options ..  I am assuming the following 
command will work?
make --enable-roaming=y --enable-default-domain=andigilog.com

That's all and thanks a lot.

  Exactly. What makes you think this message indicates a problem on your
  end?
 
 That exactly was my question about one week ago. How do I know where the
 problem is?

It's a DNS problem. qmail couldn't resolve a host name, and the
resolver said the problem was temporary. Normally, you don't have to
do anything except wait for the name server problem to be fixed. If
you know for a fact that the name is resolvable, then you might have a
problem that demands your attention. But it's not specifically a qmail
problem.

A better Single-UID POP3 Howto?

2000-07-12 Thread Steven M. Klass

Hey all,

I almost have qmail running right.  If I can just get it to send 
externally, all will be well.  Anyway, I read Paul Greg Single UID POP3 
Howto, and I was wondering if anyone else had as much trouble following it 
as I did.  No disrespect, especially since he did it, and I can't figure 
out how to do it.  Anyway, can anyone suggest some lessons learned, a 
better howto, or a better way to start off.

Thanks

Qmail - Switch from ISP to in-house server DNS Stuff

2000-06-29 Thread Steven M. Klass

Hey all

We own andigilog.com and earthlink is currently hosting both our email and 
our web.  I want to save us some money and shift the email (eventually the 
web too) back to our local Linux box.  I have recently built up the Linux 
Box and I have chrooted DNS running on it.  I have not shifted my name 
servers from earthlink to my ISP at Network solutions yet.  My box is 
budha.andigilog.com.  I am not currently broadcasting this to world 
(DNS).  I want to set up qmail and test it for andigilog.com, without 
bothering earthlink.  When I set up qmail do I  ./config or ./config-fast 
andigilog.com?

Thanks
