I did edit my hosts file
adding
69.144.11.118mirrors.qmailtoaster.com

and then when i ran bootstarp 2 -- it seemed to be much happier

so i went to look for the qt-setup-firewall script
[  Q2 ]
i seem to have 2
( i found these by Find  / -name "qt-setup-firewall" -print )

/usr/bin/qt-setup-firewall
/opt/qmailtoaster-util/bin/qt-setup-firewall

they seem to be the same

need I change both? or if only 1 - which one?

as I look at these I am . thinking I should change 1 or 3 things

maybe 
MYIP=  to what my true ipNumber is and that would be my private num

here is some info  My public num= 168.215.62.221  ; my private num= 
192.168.201.221


maybe i should comment out
iptables -A input -s 192.168.0.0/16

or maybe i could  - not turn iptables on by commenting out or removing

chkconfig iptables OFF

so , again , i am behind a nating firewall.
and I suspect i need to alter my qt-setup-firewall ( one or both )
what would those changes be

then run qt-install

and then how do i prove that -- i have it all installed OK


thanks much!

jim S






and what sort of change would one wish to make?


Q3

after i get it installed
how do I prove that it is  Ok?  running as desired ?
[ and then I make my domains and add users }


Thanks

My guess is that the mirror you happened to get was down. As a work 
around, try pinging mirror2.qmailtoaster.com, 
mirror3.qmailtoaster.com, etc until you find one responding (mirror1 
will probably respond, but that's a slow connection). Then add the 
address/name using mirrors.qmailtoaster.com to your /etc/hosts file. 
This will force resolver to use one that you know is working.




well I pinged
mirror1.qmailtoaster.com70.58.124.170
time=82ms

mirror2.qmailtoaster.com 69.144.11.118
time=96ms

I did not put anything in my host file .. i thought I would just try it 
again

and I am wondering if  - it worked ok

here is what i got

[root@strainer qmt_install_eff]# sh qt-bootstrap-2

Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: qmailtoaster-current
qt-bootstrap-2 - completed

I have 3 questions

Q1
did the above work ok ?
I see : " package qmailtoaster-release-2.0-1.qt.nodist.noarch is already 
installed"
but also : " Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: 
qmailtoaster-current "


am i therefore ready to do the 3rd step of
qt-install

Q2

since I am behind a nat'ing firewall I will need to change the
qt-setup-firewall script before running qt-install
well , where is the qt-setup-firewall ?
I thought the script would "show up" in the dir I ran sh qt-bootstrap-2
and what sort of change would one wish to make?
I thought I might figure it out by looking at the script -- but i do not 
find a qt-setup-firewall


Q3

after i get it installed
how do I prove that it is  Ok?  running as desired ?
[ and then I make my domains and add users }


Thanks

[qmailtoaster] dnscache

2014-11-11 Thread Michele Federici

Hi,

On a my qmailtoaster server i've several established connections to 
192.175.48.6 and 192.175.48.42


[..]
udp0  0 ipmyserver:61910 192.175.48.6:53 
ESTABLISHED 5679/dnscache
udp0  0 ipmyserver:14429 192.175.48.42:53

udp0  0 ipmyserver:35307 192.175.48.6:53 
ESTABLISHED 5679/dnscache

[..]

These connection remain ESTABLISHED until i restart the services... 
shortly thereafter reappear.


Is it normal they stay in ESTABLISHED STATE? Why qmailtoaster has needs 
to contact  these root servers? Is it a dns/spam attack?


Thank you

Michele
