I'm trying to set up a simple local email service on a small office client-server network. Can I use sendmail without setting up a separate DNS server. If I need a DNS server can I set it up on the same computer as my sendmail MTA? Can it be a private DNS server?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHaving some issues setting up sendmail on a (basically) blank RHEL 5.5 server setup. My ultimate goal is to be able to automagically send logs / errors / notifications to ourselves from the server.
Our basic setup is a Win 2003 domain with exchange running on mail.domain.com.au.
I've edited the '/etc/mail/sendmail.mc' and added the :
Code:
line to it.
Also added the domain (domain.com.au) to the '/etc/mail/local-host-names' files
Also edited submit.mc and added
Code:
When I try and send a mail from root or a test user to one of the domain accounts, it seems to go fine, i.e no errors are reported but it never gets delivered.
From the mail logs:
Code:
So it seems to be sent to the queue no problems and when I check the queue :
Code:
Total requests: 0
Not nothing ever gets received. Am I missing something? I have read and read and read but dont seem to be getting any furthur.
So in the end this server doesn't need to do anything except be able to send mail from root to an external mail address.
Have read a whole bunch of threads from how and troubleshooting but still having problems.Was thrown a box configured by someone who resigned today. Need to get mail from the box outbound via SMTP relay off our exchange server.

I need to send authenticated mails from a RHEL machine to a relay that only accepts authentication mails from domain users. I've never done this so I'm a bit lost. I read some sendmail docs and I uncommented these optins in sendmail.mc file
define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A p')dnl
...
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
and then regenerated the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file and restarted senmaild, and started saslauth service. Still I can't send an e-mail.
In nvidia-settings I see, alongwith Disabled and TwinView settings, "Separate X Server". I tried choosing the option for my LCD (connected via HDMI), but I get a blank screen, presumably since the LCD's X server has nothing to render.
How do I direct any application (say vlc) to use that X Server instead of the Monitor's X server?
I am using webmin for my daily tasks. I have fedora 13, whenever I click on ''Sendmail M4 Configuration'' or Outgoing Addresses (generics)'' I get the following error message
Quote:
The Sendmail M4 configuration base directory /usr/share/sendmail-cf was not found on your system, or is not the correct directory. Maybe it has not been installed (common for packaged installs of Sendmail), or the module config is incorrect. I read documentation at sendmail.org, it seems that structure of directories for send mail has been changed in version sendmail-8.1.4 shipped with FC13. In webmin config module we have

using ubuntu 9.10 quick summary: need to set my tv resolution to 1840x1036 to see the whole desktop without cropping i just got a panasonic plasma tv and am trying to use it to watch movies from my computer. I hooked it up using my graphic card's dvi out. Since the TV came with a dvi to hdmi adapter I just had to buy a hdmi cable and now its set up to run under 1080p input. So I got 1920x1080 resolution for the tv. The problem is that the resolution does not fit exactly into the tv's screen. I am missing about 30 pixels top & bottom and some on the sides too. This results in me seeing my desktop on my tv, but the top panel with the applications menu etc is just out of bounds.
Under windows xp I have the same problem, but the nvidia control panel there has an option to "Adjust desktop size and position" which kind of works. Well you can resize but you cant position the picture. Resizing makes my actual resolution 1840x1036 pixels. With that resolution my left rigth top and bottom edges are all inside the TVs screen. Now i tried to do this in ubuntu using nvidia-settings and manually editing xorg.conf, but I am having no success at all. Nvidia or the x server or something is totally ignoring any modlines I include for my second screen (tv), and always shows 1920x1080 ... I have no way to scale the picture from the tv menu so I need to scale it in ubuntu. Does anyone know how to do this ?
I recently modified sendmail.cf to use a third party SMTP server to send emails. It works great. But when I run sendmail from the command line, I have to specify the -C flag and force feed it the location of my sendmail.cf, or else it doesn't work.
So in other words, the following works great:
However, if I don't specify the -C flag, sendmail doesn't consider what's in the sendmail.cf and barfs:
I don't run sendmail as a daemon. I'm only using it to send emails. I know my modifications of sendmail.cf are correct because it works perfectly when I use the -C flag. I searched my disk to see if I could find another sendmail.cf on the machine and only the one in /etc/mail came up.
Why sendmail is not reading my sendmail.cf?

I am trying to setup a sendmail server on my dedicated server. It was pre-configured to use exim from cpanel. Is it possible to use exim for all emails from a a certain domain i setup on the server and sendmail for others?
ex.
domain1.com -> exim
domain2.com -> sendmail
If it is possible can someone let me know how i would go about doing this? If it is not how would i disable exim and use sendmail for all mail?
I am using an Abit NF7-S V2 mobo to set up my dual boot system where each OS (XP & Ubuntu) will run on a totally separate HD (as opposed to both OS�s being set up on one HD). Since they will be running as stand alone boot drives, how does one set it all up so that one can boot from one or the other? I don�t see how I can do it from the bios. How do I do it?

I have installed postfix and dovecot on my server and thought postfix will not only take SMTP connection from my e-mail client like Outlook, but also handles "mailx" commands from the server. However, it looks like sendmail is still responsible for sending mails from "mailx". I tested this by turning it on/off using "service sendmail stop" and "service sendmail start". Mails sent using "mailx" will only be sent when sendmail is up. When I did "yum info sendmail", it lists sendmail as an installed package. Is is safe to remove sendmail by running "yum erase sendmail", and let postfix handles "mailx" also?

I recently setup an email server on Fedora Core (14). Sendmail is running and I am trying to authenticate from a client pc using imaps. I installed Cyrus-imap and it is running and listening on 993. When I try to login, it doesn't accept authentication even though I verified the user's password is correct. (tested with ssh)Is there something I have to do with Cyrus or on the server to allow connections to email? I have not used Cyrus before. I am attempting to access my mail folders via Sendmail and did not make mailboxes in Cyrus. I did allow imaps through the firewall.
