Sendmail / SMTP Auth
Hello,
I have set up an RH 9 server that is a mail, dns and dhcp server. I've got dns and dhcp set up ok but I am having trouble with sendmail and SMTP auth. I want local users AND external roaming users to be able to sned/rcv mail via SMTP auth (using login to SMTP feature on most MUAs) I followed the instructions here to set up SMTP auth: joreybump.com/code/howto/smtpauth.html and it seems to have gone smoothly. However I keep getting this error when I try to send mail from the MUA: 550 5.7.1 <example@hotmail.com>... Relaying denied. IP name lookup failed [10.0.0.150] 10.0.0.150 is the IP of the local machine, granted via dhcp. Google searches suggest that I should be adding some blcok of IPs to a relay list, but that doesn't make any sense...I want any IP to be able to use this thing as long as they authenticate via smtp auth. Any ideas? Many thanks! |
I got to work by dnl'ing this line:
define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A p y')dnl I hope I still have a secure sendmail setup??? |
i THINK i may have it working...
goto, http://www.joreybump.com/code/howto/smtpauth.html and follow it... it APPEARS to have worked... |
Another fix is to use pmpass, once a user POP3 auths, it will allow that user( actually, that IP) to relay for a certian amount of time. It has worked very well for me for over a year now.
