Hi all,

I am back with a little questions :

I just bought new domain from networksolutions. inc

1) abc.com
2) def.com

i already have mail server with domain abc.com
now i want to put the def.com into the mail server

Can i do this, will be a problem , how to do this ?

From your subject line, I would assume you are hosting a DNS server at your home office.

You just need to follow the same steps you did to create your abc domain. Add def.com in named.conf, define its zone files in /var/named and you are all set.

you will need to configure your mail server to accept mails for both your domain names.

Thanks,

I own my DNS server, i have set the domain into named.conf

Now i want to set my mail server to accept those two domain, where is need to setup this so the mail server will be able to send and receive all mails.

i am using sendmail and redhat 7.1

the files you would need to look at are

/etc/mail/access and
/etc/mail/local-host-names

Dear ppuru,

how about the file in /etc/host

did i need to make change of them too?

If you dns is able to resolve mailserver.def.com, it is not really necessary to put an entry in /etc/hosts.
