Fedora Servers :: Postfix Only Listening On Localhost ?
Oct 27, 2009
I am trying to get my own email server set up, and so far its been going pretty smooth, The only thing that is not working right now is receiving emails. I can send email just fine, and when they are sent they are even sent from the proper addresses, but when I try to send an email to my domain, it does not go through.
I have the port forwards set up on my router to send all traffic on port 25 over to my mail server, I can telnet to the smtp server from the localhost just fine, but when I try to telnet from another computer on my network it gives me this message
Quote:
So I ran a netstat -an on my mail server to see what ip address smtp is listening on and I get this result
Quote:
Now most guides I find for this problem just say to un comment the line in the master.cf that says "smtp inet n - - - - smtpd", the problem is that line is already uncommented and I am still not able to telnet to port 25 from any machine on my network.
Here is my main.cf, tell me if there is anything that I can do.

Here is what i do: make clean make makefiles CCARGS='-DEF_CONFIG_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/etc"
-DEF_COMMAND_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5"
-DEF_DAEMON_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/libexec"
-DEF_MAILQ_PATH="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/bin/mailq"
-DEF_DATA_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/lib"
-DEF_NEWALIAS_DIR="/opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/bin/newaliases"
[Code]...
make install then i got this error: postfix: fatal: chdir(/usr/libexec/postfix): No such file or directory make: *** [install] Error 1 I don't understand why it's checking the usr/libexec folder for the daemons although I've set the folder to /opt/product/postfix-2.6.5/libexec in the makefile. Here is also the cat of my makedefs.out:

Currently Im having a syslog server that consolidate firewall logs on port 514 udp. Im also having a IDS device that I wish to push its logs to this particular syslog server so that I can retrieve my IDS logs on this server as well.
Is it possible to do so?Having syslog listening on port 514 for both firewall and IDS logs? If it is possible will the logs be recorded in a single log file?Or will it be recorded in a separate log file ie. firewall.log, IDS.log etc?? I wish to have them in separate individual log files or else there will be hard time segregating the log entries in a single file. Can anyone advice on how to achieve this??

Looking for a test tool where I can fire up any number of ports (TCP and / or UDP) to listen on.
I am currently getting my using nc but its only 1 port at a time (i know I can open up multiple sessions but thats cumbersome), it can't do UDP, and it closes at the end of the session.
A friend has suggested socat but it looks pretty much the same except it can do UDP, but also cumbersome, I have to manually output to a different file per port, etc.
Basically its so I can quickly test firewall and NAT rules.

I have an installation of Fedora 10 that has been running wonderfully for months, ever since I bombed my 9 installation trying to install Apache Tomcat (I really just wanted Apache, live and learn). I finally decided to brave the attempt to install Apache 2.2 again because I have a little more instruction to go by. Apparently not enough to deal with this snag though, at least not the way I want.
Install went fine, but I couldn't start the service. Following the error trail I found that it was binding IPv6 to port 80 and wouldn't allow any other ip or localhost to use it. I disabled IPv6, don't need it, I'll learn about it later.

I'm running Fedora 12 on x86_64. I've installed squirrelmail, along with dovecot on my office server, and cannot access it through http://localhost/webmail. I have followed all the configuration steps I could find (including http://www.server-world.info/en/note...12&p=httpd&f=7).
I know that everything else is working (I can send and receive mail, access IMAP mailboxes, webserver is working), browsing to
http://localhost/webmail
just gives me
"Problem loading page"
in Firefox. Sometimes, however the message is "Unable to connect."
I will add that I already tried installing Squirrelmail on another (i686) machine and had exactly the same problem.
/var/log/httpd/error_log says:
File does not exist: /var/www/html/squirrelmail
This makes it seem like aliasing is not working somehow.

For backup and pre-functionality purposes, I need to simulate a VirtualHost in my Fedora (14) machine. I found some interesting links to carry out that process but with an IP fix.So, how can I simulate a VH through a localhost with a dynamic IP?

Just setup my postfix and trying to telnet localhost.

telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
I wanna paste my /var/log/maillog but i don't know how, when i copy from putty screen it's only copied part of the log.
btw i found one similar problem here [URL] but the thread starter already lost the pastebin so i don't know how he resolved the problems.

Last time I rebooted, sendmail & dovecot started from init and everything worked. I needed to reboot this weekend [new videocard] & yum had given me a new kernel etc.Now.2.6.34.7-56.fc13.i686 running Thunderbird - with 2 accounts chuck@otherserver.com and chuck@localhost.
The "otherserver" account works fine. Localhost won't pull in the mail.
/var/log/maillog says
dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<chuck>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured
dovecot: POP3(chuck): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0

i have fedora 11 installed in my laptop and apache server by default. after starting httpd and mysqld services i was able to access localhost through browser.(e.g. [URL]). before installing phpMyAdmin everything goes right. after installing phpMyAdmin it created problem in localhost. now typing [URL] it opens joomla site but without images and without intending of content. when i type [URL] in browser it ask for user name and password. i already provide user name(root) and password(my_root_password) in /etc/phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php. but it doesnt open.

I had to reinstall my DMZ webserver the other day. Now I cannot figure out for the life of me figure out why Apache refuses to listen on eth1 it will only listen on eth0. I have it setup so that it listens with * I'm not specifying a particular IP for it to listen on. When I do specify it still doesn't work.

I am building an email server in what I consider to be a 'small business'. I would say my Postfix mail server will house 300 mailboxes (Max). I have a decent server with enough RAM / disk space to run this email server however I don't know what the best way is to manage / configure the users mail boxes.
how to create a new user on the Linux server using 'adduser / useradd' and then setting their shell to /bin/nologin. This is because the mail user will never need to log into the shell of the mail server directly and can still populate email from their mailbox which is located in their /home/$user directory. Now many people I spoke with have advised me that this is a bad and cumbersome method of account administration.
I am running:
Postfix 2.5
Clamav v0.94.2
Amavisd-new 2.5.4
Dovecot 1.0.7
Spamassassin 3.2.5

Alright I have read through and tried many different tutorials but a VAST majority of them are with virtual users. This is my own personal email server so virtual users is unneccessary when I can just use the users personal mailbox.
My postfix main.cf there are 2 things I am unsure of. 1) For system users which local_recipiant_maps do i use? 2) What should mynetworks be?As I have been testing it out through telnet I can send mail but it doesnt get to my test email (a gmail account) and when i try to send an email locally it seems that everything works fine but the mail doesnt get there, and the error i am getting is that it cant find the user.

I have Postfix + Unix Accounts + Virtual Domains. I have a bunch of domains hosted on my machine, let's call them [URL] [URL] and [URL]... etc Until know, domain2.com, domain3.com were mapped in virtual domains to [URL] So this is how /etc/postfix/virtual looks like:
[URL]
Like I said, all mail accounts are unix accounts, so, if for example I have the user "paul" this user will receive e-mail for ALL DOMAINS. [URL]But as it turns out, I now need a COMPLETELY ISOLATED domain... let's call it [URL]. So If I create a new user, let's call it "steve" I want steve to receive e-mail ONLY on [URL] and not on all others.
I would have to redo the whole thing from the beginning. I'd have to comment out the $mydestination parameter in the main.cf file and start using only virtual domains. So if I have the following users: paul, steve, sally, megan, jenny and I want paul and steve to ONLY receive mail for domain1.com, sally and megan to receive mail for domain2.com and jenny to receive mail for domainX.com, my /etc/postfix/virtual file would have to look like this:
[URL]
I'd have to create the unix account and then start modifying the /etc/postfix/virtual file.

I have been running an email server on a Red Hat 9 system for 5 years, and wanting to upgrade it to the latest Fedora OS. A few days ago it crashed. The server is running Fedora 11 (up-to-date). Clients are Fedora 11 and Windows XP machines using Thunderbird for accessing email. The server is running Postfix and Dovecot. Within my local network I can send and receive emails. I can also send email to addresses outside of my local network. The only problem is that I cannot receive any email from outside the local network. I cannot think of anything aside from my firewall (iptables) or postfix config that could be causing the problem.
Below are my iptables file, and the postfix main.cf changes that I have made.
Iptables (the same file I was using on Red Hat version 9 with one minor deprecated syntax changed):
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [22:1894]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [14:840]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [17:1356]
-A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
COMMIT
*filter .....

I'm a bit lost with the PHP/Sendmail configuration, maybe somebody could help me getting back on the right track. Following situation:
Postfix:
* accepts smtp on port 25 but from his own domains. Some policy and spamchecks through amavisd are made.
* accepts submission on port 587 and 465 from authenticated users only. Quota and spamchecks prevent outgoing spam.
So I'm enforcing a very strong outgoing spam-policy but the users are still able to use the php mail() function to send spam through the /usr/sbin/sendmail command.
My users have access to their own php.ini so my idea was to somehow enforce the delivery through the local postfix on port 587 or 465 and just let them enter their user/pass in their php.ini. (I suppose, their might be a cleaner-solution ).
Unfortunately, my configurations like smtp_host, port, user etc. are getting ignored if the sendmail_path line is active. But if I comment this line out, php just uses the default, which is the same as configured in the sendmail_path line - so it's active whether i use the line or not (setting it to an invalid command breaks the mail() function completely).
how can I enforce my anti-spam policy on the php mail() command?For my ssh users I just blocked the outgoing connection to localhost on port 25 which seems to work so far, but somehow the postfix-sendmail-wrapper just ignores this.

I have an email server configured with postfix, dovecot, saslauthd and squirrelmail. It works great. In fact I'd even say it works too well: in squirrelmail, I can configure any sender address and my server will accept it. Message will be sent, wether the sender's address is [URL] or [URL]. Is there any way of limiting it in such way that only [URL] is accepted as sender's address?

My postfix is ok with receiving emails but i can send mail to my domain only [URL] When I want to send to other domains i receive this error (in the maillog):

I installed FC10, and configured everything to work with my static IP address [URL]. As far as email goes everything works except for the php script on my website. This script worked fine on my previous install, and it appears to actually submit the email as shown in the maillog:
Aug 12 14:21:02 myhome postfix/pickup[27581]: 37406BFDD9: uid=48 from=<apache>
Aug 12 14:21:02 myhome postfix/cleanup[27783]: 37406BFDD9: message-id=<20090812192102.37406BFDD9@www.myhome.com>
[code]....
I also created the following php script to test
<?
(mail ("test@myhome","Test message","this is a test"))
?>
And I was able to send successfully with this script with the only difference being it was sent by root rather than apache. This leads me to believe it's some sort of rights issue with the apache user. I wouldn't be surprised is SELinux was behind it all. I spent days and days after installing wordpress trying to get it to connect to mysql, and that turned out to be a SELinux issue.

I have an issue with postfix and my server.One account (mine) is not considered as spam by no one. But all the other users are treated as spam by yahoo, and hotmail. And I can't understand why.Here are the header from one user who sent an email to my yahoo account (treated as spam):
Code:
From userNAme Sat May 22 01:52:27 2010

I am trying to configure virtual alias using regular expression.
For example :
Email send to user.1@example.com and user.2@example.com will deliver to user mailbox.
Email send to user2.1@example.com and user2.2@example.com will deliver to user2 mailbox.
And the numbers or alphabet in between user name and the domain will be vary , I can't just do a normal alias.
I been try to play around with main.cf and the virtual alias table but still not able to get work. So I am not sure is the main.cf didnt configure correctly or the regular expression is not working.
