[toaster] simple smtp questions
I'm learning as I go, so please bear with me for some simple questions. I didn't want to have an open relay, so I have rcpthosts set to "any domain", since that's the only way I could get qmail to allow me to send mail out to any person. But that creates an open relay. So I changed the qmail-smtp port to 2525, which worked, but now I can't get incoming mail from other people, so I changed it back to 25. So I'm a little confused... how do I set up a mail server to not be an open relay, but allow certain users to authenticate and connect to send mail through the server, yet still accept mail to any domain on the box from any other sender? thanks. -- -Hank
[toaster] Toaster patch failure..
Hi all, I am facing problem when installing qmail using the 'toaster' I follow the instructions in the toaster URL: http://www.shupp.org/toaster/#top First compiling qmail with the default netqmail directory , then the toaster -and after installing vpopmail- instructs to use a toaster patch and to recompile qmail --> http://www.shupp. org/toaster/#vpopmail I got the problem when re-making: make the message says: Can not find "ssl.h" then I have installed openssl v0.98 , new message appears: ### ./compile tls.c tls.c:12: error: conflicting types for `strerror' /usr/include/string.h:256: error: previous declaration of `strerror' was here make: *** [tls.o] Error 1 ### what is wrong with the patch from toaster , and what should I do ??

But that creates an open relay. Yes, that is wrong way to do it. Correct way is to use smtp auth or define ip addresses manually to tcp-server. It mainly requires public and static not dhcp-addresses > So I changed the qmail-smtp port to 2525, which worked, but now I > can't get incoming mail from other people, so I changed it back to 25. It is server side, yes, only 25 port. > So I'm a little confused... how do I set up a mail server to not be an > open relay, but allow certain users to authenticate and connect to > send mail through the server, yet still accept mail to any domain on > the box from any other sender? smtp auth is on the box in shupp.org installation, it works without any modifications. Server receives any email to rcphosts domains and only allows authenticated users to send mail to other domains, got it? -- Eero
Re: [toaster] gmake problems
Thanks Bill! It was entirely my fault. I told my buddy to start _below_ where it lists the required applications needing installed (openssl, stunnel, etc). Now the whole ./configure --with-redhat did throw me...
