U, not precisely. I don't want outside world mail coming in. I simply want to relay internal traffic out.

There is > lots of documentation on selective relaying with qmail and tcpserver. Charles, in all seriousness, no BS'ing, no being snide, anything, I am a newbie. A very new newbie to qmail and linux. When the consultant hired to do all this work bailed, I got tagged for the job. I read a ton of stuff on the web. I joined this list. I couldn't get selective relaying to work. Period. So the advice, I think from Robin, was to reinstall and follow the LWQ directions to a T - which I did with the exceptions of installing daemontools. The daemontools that I installed are 0.76 and not 0.70 as in the LWQ doc. Still could not get selective relaying to go. I was frantic and guessing. Thought maybe it was a DNS problem but when I brought that to the list and DNS got ruled out. Long story short: If Lukas Beeler hadn't told me to do a command I have NEVER in 6 years of working with SCO UNIX used or even knew existed and you hadn't explained to me about xinetd and wrappers I would still be begging for assistance. So yes, there are good docs on the web. But none that I was able to find addressed the possibility that if you screwed up your run file either a) xinetd might take over (because someone before you had tinkered with it) and make qmail mail an open relay or b) smtp would not run as a daemon at all. And not knowing sh*t about what I was really doing on a new OS with a new product I really think that maybe there is a bit of a gap in documentation - unless I really balled up and missed it somewhere. I was doing everything the docs and faqs had told me to do but selective relaying didn't work. Maybe I missed it when I didn't read the testing docs?? That's my two cents worth. I think maybe I should stop wasting everyone's time and bandwidth and call this closed unless someone wants to do rebuttal. Thanks, Scott

Yeah, people keep telling me that *I* spelled it wrong but after an hour and a half of looking at EVERY script I had edited, "setuidgid" or "setguidgid" was no where to be found in any text file. Turns out I didn't fat finger anywhere. I tracked the problem to the /service/qmail-smtp/run script. I haven't isolated the problem in the script yet but I must have mis-set a flag, misplaced a line break or something. I gave up after a couple of hours on trying to diagnose my faux paux. Here's what I did to get tcpserver to run: 1. I removed the smtp file from the xinetd.d directory which was invoking tcpwrappers through xinetd and HUP'd xinetd. (BTW, simply removing the smtp file and rebooting...and yeah...I know, didn't have to reboot, could have HUP'd, etc did NOT allow tcpserver to "run free". I was still getting the errors about "setguidgid" not being found in the readproctitle log. It was only after replacing the run file with the one from the LWQ install docs that I was able to eliminate the the readproctitle errors.) 2. I stopped qmail. 3. I went back to the LWQ /service/qmail-smtpd/run script and put it into play. (I was using a script sent to me by Robin but I had modified it - hence, my fault not his) 4. I started qmail. 5. I ran `ps auxwf | grep readp` and saw there were no readproctitle errors. 6. I ran `netstat -lp | grep smtp` and saw that tcpserver was the daemon. (Previous invocations of the command either showed that xinetd was running smtp or that NO smtp was running. 7. I put a blank rcpthosts file in the /var/qmail/control directory. 8. I checked the /etc/tcp.smtp file and made sure I had my IP addresses set in the rules the way I wanted them. 9. Restarted qmail. 10. Tested by sending a message from the allowable IP range - success. Tested by sending a message from an outside IP range - failure. 11. Happiness Again, my thanks to you and Lukas for pointing me in the right direction. I'm not enough of a linux wizard yet (going on 5 days now, woohoo!) to know how to delete xinetd. Hell, I didn't even know what xinetd was.

The output of qmail-showctl is always good too. Chances are this is FAQ #1. But you didn't even clarify the problem; "doesn't accept connections"?

How do you get tcpserver to run the qmail-smtpd daemon? When I run it as in the faq, it runs and I see the process running, but it doesn't accept connections. I then changed it to use inetd using tcp-env and qmail-smtpd accepts connections. Could someone get me starting in the right direction?

tcpserver problems? or is it qmail? or BOTH! Help?
Hey all, I'll keep it short. I am hoping to implement qmail where i work for a canadian univeristy. I have installed linux 7.1 and qmail and tcpserver. all services appear to be running error free. I can connect to the box on the local machine, but not from outside the box at all. I have set the rules to :ALLOW and restarted the tcpserver and the qmail - but i still get no connection on port 25 through telnet from anywhere other than the local machine. Hoping someone can help - please respond directly to my email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if you can. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

tcpserver problems
Hi, this is my first time posting, hope that you all can help me out. I running qmail 1.03 on an Alpha Personal Workstation 500, Redhat 6.2. I did just a standard server install of the OS, then untarred qmail. ucspi, daemon tools, and dot-forward. I compiled and installed all of the components and used the Life with qmail setup guide scripts. All of the services start (when you do a ps -ax, you see all of the services running) when I do /usr/local/sbin/qmail start. When I try to telnet to port 25, I get a connection refused message. Checked the qmail logs and in the smtpd log, I get a message that says"tcpserver: error in loading shared libraries:libc.so.6.1:failed to map segment from shared object:Cannont allocate memory". This repeats over and over again. I have nothing running in inetd. I wanted to make sure that nothing else could possibly be interferring with tcpserver administrering port 25. Could something else be using the libc library and not allowing access? Is the libc corrupt? I tried re-rpming some of the glibc stuff with no effect. Is something wrong with my qmail setup? Please help!!! BTW, I triple checked my scripts and the are exactly the ones from life with qmail. My aliases are there and so are my soft links. Michael French I.T.

It tries to figure out what port number 'pop-3' is by looking it up in /etc/services. I would bet that in your /etc/services file, it's actually referred to as 'pop3'. If that is the case, change your command line to read 'pop3' and it should work fine.

Interesting. Check "man tcpserver".

Tcpserver problems on machine w/ multiple IPs
All of a sudden I'm having problems with tcpserver on a machine with multiple IP's (but only one network interface card). It was working great until recently; running qmail-smtpd and qmail-pop3d on both a "live" IP and a non-routable IP (192.168.0.x). But just a few hours ago, it stopped running qmail-smtpd AND qmail-pop3d on the non-routable IP. The non-routable IP is still up. I can telnet to ports 25 and 110 from machines on the non-routable network, but although tcpserver seems to accept the connection, it does not seem to run the proper program once a TCP session is established. It works OK on the live IP though. Has this happened to anyone else before? Any advice (where to look, etc.) would be greatly appreciated.

You are using a gcc for Solaris 2.4. That doesn't work. Once you fix that, this problem will go away.
tcpserver problems
I'm getting the following error when trying to compile ucspi-tcp-0.84 on a Sun Solaris 2.6 (sparc) box: bash-2.02$ make ./compile tcpclient.c In file included from tcpclient.c:2: /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.4/2.7.1/include/sys/param.h:185: warning: `NBBY' redefined /usr/include/sys/select.h:45: warning: this is the location of the previous definition In file included from /usr/include/sys/stream.h:26, from /usr/include/netinet/in.h:38, from tcpclient.c:4: /usr/include/sys/model.h:32: #error "No DATAMODEL_NATIVE specified" *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `tcpclient.o' here are the offending lines in model.h: #if defined(_LP64) #define DATAMODEL_NATIVEDATAMODEL_LP64 #elif defined(_ILP32) #define DATAMODEL_NATIVEDATAMODEL_ILP32 #else #error "No DATAMODEL_NATIVE specified" #endif /* _LP64 || _ILP32 */ I assume I can just do #define _LP64 or #define _ILP32 somewhere, but damned if I know where (or which to use) :) Any ideas where I can find this out? Does it matter which I use? --Adam --- bash: syntax error near unexpected token `:)' Adam D. McKenna [EMAIL PROTECTED]
