Server :: How To Enable Masquerading In Sendmail
Feb 11, 2010
l have been trying to enable masquerading in sendmail. I've started from scratch. Here's what I did:
1.My Mail Server name is "ids.com" and local hostname is "server"
2. When I send the mail from my user to other user. The mail goes with user@server
All this allows me to send mail from all of my computers. Now, to get masquerading:
3. I have MASQUERADE_AS(`ids.com'), MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`ids.com'), and FEATURE(`masquerade_entire_domain'). I also added "ids.com" to /etc/mail/local-host-names to be able to receive mail addressed to that domain.
This masquerades mail originating on the server, but still the mail from the other computers has a "From:" line of the form user@hostname.

I have a Centos 5.5 Server, Servername is CentOS1. It has a Forum and a HelpDesk. The Help Desk software SENDS and acknowledgement to the user and emails to all the people on the support desk. Users can reply to emails only by accessing the helpdesk NOT by mail. Thus the server is configured to only SEND mail and not to receive any mail at all.
Mail Server is Sendmail.
Hosts file reads : -
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1CentOS1.tech.xxxxx.com CentOS1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
There is NO MX Record because this server receives NO mail, it's send only. Unfortunately, the mail it sends has a From Header which is @CentOS1.tech.xxxxx.com. I want it to send from @xxxxx.com. I've read all the howtos on Masquerading and I've tried many, many things, but with the same results. It will NOT change the From. I had it working perfectly a long time ago with a SuSE server, but I can't for the life of me remember what I did. I know I also battled a bit.
The last few lines of sendmail.mc read : -
LOCAL_DOMAIN('localhost.localdomain')dnl
dnl #
dnl # The following example makes mail from this host and any additional
dnl # specified domains appear to be sent from mydomain.com
dnl #
dnl MASQUERADE_AS('xxxxx.com')dnl
dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
dnl FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(localhost.localdomain)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(CentOS1.tech.xxxxx.com)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(CentOS1)dnl
dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(tech.xxxxx.com)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(procmail)dnl
dnl MAILER(cyrusv2)dnl
I've tried each one of the MAQUERADE_DOMAIN in turn, none of them work and yes, I have remade it.

I have my system set up with sendmail (going through my ISP SMTP server) but when I sent an email using sendmail it was defaulting the from address to user.host.domain or something similar. So I read up about masquerading [URL] and managed to get it to USERNAME@myisp.com however I want to change USERNAME to a different value because my ISP username is different from my machine username. My aim is just to get the from address to be [URL]. This machine is only used by me so I don't need it to be different for different users if that makes things any easier...?

I am setting up a computing cluster in my lab, as below. all the "eth0" IP addresses are static (for cluster communication) and the "eth1" of the front node is the only one connected to the internet through lab's DHCP server (which is connected to a centralized computer center in the university). The thing I wish to do is to do some sort of IP masquerading to enable all the nodes to have internet access. I actually google around and read some books. The similar things I came across is setting rules in iptables but I did not manage to get any of them working. I am using Ubuntu Lucid 64-bit on all machine.

I have set up OpenVPN Server on a VM (Ubuntu 10.10) running virtualbox bridged to the host. Everything is working fine excepts the fact that I cant seem to be able to assign internal IP (VPN Server) to client connecting. Let me explain: All my clients are connecting and accessing the internet without any issue. Where I have an issue is that all my clients come out the other way on the internet with my server ip address which kind of defeat the purpose. Is there a way (keeping in mind that I am running the server in a VM) to have all my clients accessing the internet with an IP provided by the VPN Server?

Have a router running OpenSUSE 11.3. I have 3 interfaces
eth0 192.168.0.0/24 - local network
eth1 - The Internet if
eth2 - Citynet
I have configured routing and it works. I can browse the Internet from local net. However, I want to connect to my workstation (192.168.0.3) from Citynet interface. I've made masquerading rule in Yast it works just fine like a proxy do (on 192.168.0.2 local server). Now I need to run VPN server in my local net to connect from Citynet interface, and I have problems with it. I've configured pptpd on the router and it work for local network and I have a vpn server under Windows on 192.168.0.2
So my questions are:
1. What do I need to do in yast to allow vpn (pptp) ftom eth2 to 192.168.0.2?
2. What do I need to do in yast to allow vpn on router?
Some how I succeed to make redirection to 192.168.0.2 and it worked, but I've tried to change it to router and can't get it work again.
In all these cases client has the next message:
pptp[109]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
pptp[109]: Connection terminated.
pptp[109]: Modem hangu

I am literally quite stuck with proftp the version being: ProFTPD Version 1.3.3e# I have the following config:
[Code]...
I mean would I need to logically seperate out a series of passive ports and then open them using my custom routers NAT, so each passive port goes to its own virtual host as such? Just a bit confused about what the next steps would entail I mean I don't have any firewall on my Linux box, don't see the point since I use pfSense and an IPS/IDS and it's never been hacked since!

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
Quote:
Sendmail M4 base directory = /usr/share/sendmail-cf
which is not there. I did a locate / sendmail-cf on the command line, it finds nothing

How to Nat. I wanted to be able to resolve something like
ftp.myfirstdomain.com to 192.168.0.2
Then ftp.mysecond.com to 192.168.0.3
Just as a random example, I know these cannot be done using name based virtual hosts like in Apache. But I got this working internally using my LAN connection and the 2 IP addresses above, with Bind DNS pointing the dns's to those 2 ip addresses respectively. This worked, yet when I tried connecting from my work place to transfer some files, it kept going to the default user's home directory. Just wanted to get this project finished, 2 domains and one public facing IP address.

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'm running Sendmail version 8.14.2 on Fedora Core 8.

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.

After searching the forum I could not find a clear answer to my question so I am giving it a try...
I have installed a LAMP server with Postfix as mail server. The scripts send email as user www-data using the mail server on the same machine.
However, the email got rejected by external mail servers (failed reverse DNS check) so I setup a mail server that meets all needed requirements.
Now I would like to use this second server instead of the mail server on the LAMP server. I found that this could be done with changing sendmail settings in php.ini (I think).
However I am not sure how that will go: www-data is no actual user on the new email server (which requires authentication before sending). Do I need to create a new user on the email server or change the settings in php.ini to match an existing user?

We're running a sendmail server on a fedora core 9 which we've configured recently. The problem is, the server is working fine but there are some e-mails that enter our server but doesn't get forwarded to the user.

Here it says "stat=Sent" but nothing from the above mail address has been received on the client's inbox. We've experienced this with Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express and Thunderbird alike so far with Two(2) of our user accounts.

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'm setting up a full server configuration on Fedora, moving it from Mandriva which sadly faces a rather uncertain future. Things are going well and I will be ready (and more familiar with Fedora) in time to upgrade to Fedora 15.
What I have done so far in regard to networking setup:
I first removed Network Manager and replaced it with the network service (chkconfig --level 25 network on). That put an end to the overwriting of /etc/hosts, which now reads simply:

Having 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.

I am trying to set up a mail server on centos5 using sendmail and dovecot, and eventually spamassassin and some antivirus filter as well. I'd also like to get the proper secure auth mechanism set up at some point too. But for starters, I've been having a lot of difficulty trying to even connect to the mail server from a client computer in the local network. I installed Eudora on the client and after some tweaking in dovecot I was able to connect to the mail server, but then when I try to send an email I get a "connection refused" error, with nothing being logged on the server that I can see.
The last time I set up a mail server was Fedora Core 2, so the configuration files have changed a bit to say the least, and I can't really refer back to those to set up this new server. Does anybody know of a good step-by-step doc on getting the mail server going? I've read the man pages and other various readme's, but these really only list out the available options with no really good explanation of what needs to be done to get the mail server going. If there isn't a full write-up on how to do this, I'll put something together when I'm finished so others can use it in the future.

I've got a server set up with Debian. The problem is that my ISP doesn't allow usage of port 25 (as I understand a lot of ISP's don't).I have PHP scripts hat use the mail() function to send e-mails through the Sendmail application.So, my question is: How can I relay messages sent to sendmail to an external SMTP server (like Google Mail, for example)? Would this be easier to do in the PHP configuration, or on the Sendmail side of things?I've used PEAR extensions in PHP to achieve this before, but scripts downloaded from the Internet generally just use the basic mail() function, and it would be a real pain to modify them all.

I pay for wifi usage. The access points are using mac address filtering. I know this because I can spoof the mac of another computer of mine and get it online. I'd like to get both the computer's online. I've been trying to do ip masquerading. It hasn't been working so far. I am not sure if the computer connected to mine through a cross over cable is revealing its mac address to the access points when communicating. If so, how does one get around this? ping shows connectivity between the two computers.

Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I have a couple of interfaces in a Fedora 14 box:
eth0: internet provided by an adsl router
eth1: LAN
I set up system-config-firewall to masquerade all outgoing traffic in eth0, as I did in other Fedora 13 boxes, but it seems it doesn't work. It sets to 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and also set the appropriate rules in iptables. But all traffic is blocked from the LAN to the Internet. "ping www.google.com" works in the Fedora box, but doesn't work in the LAN computers using the F14 IP as gateway. I have another F13 computer elsewhere configured this way and it works fine. But this one has Fedora 14.
