Hi,
My config is as follows :
Internet - Ubuntu - Switch - LAN (few Windows machines & Ubuntu boxes)
My LAN is able to access internet, but my mail clients are not able to connect to the public IP to retrieve mails from externalmail server. Kindly help
Thanks
yes I think squid is allowing use of only port 3128. DO I need to add a similar line in squid.conf mentioning port 110
from an Ubuntu machine on my lan, telnet 192.168.0.1 110 was refused, but 192.168.0.1 3128 was allowed.
Hi,
But I am able to download mails onto my Ubuntu box which connects directly to the Internet. This has squid2.7 stable3 version, no firewall, no mailserver, no IPTables.
My LAN (consisting of 2Windows & 1Ubuntu) is able to browse the Internet, but not able to send/receive the mails which are being hosted by an external ISP.
My config is Internet - Ubuntu - Switch - LAN (few Windows machines & Ubuntu boxes). Do the mail clients on LAN need port110 to be open on squid to send/receive mails or does port 3128 suffice.
Should I telnet from LAN or from my Ubuntu m/c connected directly and should I telnet my static IP or the IP where my mails are currently being hosted.
Should I telnet from LAN or from my Ubuntu m/c connected directly and should I telnet my static IP or the IP where my mails are currently being hosted.
login on a machine on your lan where you can not get mail
telnet to the external mailserver on port 110
