You don't need a telnet server to use a telnet client... Are you running qmail-smtpd? _How_ are you running qmail-smtpd?

You got an O ('oh') that should be a 0 ('zero').
Unless your hostname is O ('oh') in which case it's just a resolving
problem :)

So the name the machine has will not resolve properly. That has nothing to do with it. Just change the O to 0 and you should be in business. Chris

Too vague...you typed what exactly ? Hopefully :- telnet localhost 25 or telnet 127.0.0.1 25 > I've enable telnet in inetd.conf and my /etc/tcp.smtp file looks like > this: > > 127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" > 10.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="" AND... You`ve put it in /etc/tcp.smtp BUT have you built the cdb yet ? ie. qmailctl cdb OR, in case that doesn`t work tcprules /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb /etc/tcp.smtp.tmp < /etc/tcp.smtp > I think qmail is running a ps -ax gives: > > 11988 ??

I'm thinking that the reason qmail is unahppy is that my machine is not on the Internet yet. So the name the machine has will not resolve properly. Though I was hoping I could test the machine without putting out on the Big Bad Internet. Jc _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

It would appear as if you have followed Life With Qmail. Good. In this case, tail -f /var/log/qmail/smtpd/current and start qmail. See if any errors come up, and paste them here. I can tell you now that, from your ps output, qmail is not running. If it was, there would be a tcpserver running as well, listening to port 25 and spawning qmail-smtpd when you telnet there... -- Press any key to continue or any other key to quit...
