While in YAST2, everything seems to save fine except for the information in the "Host Name and Domain Server Configuration" screen. I have two servers side by side, the one works perfectly fine, the one does not. I can save the IP address and changes to DHCP and Static, but when I enter in the information for the Domain Name and Host Name, I click next, it saves, but when I go back in to it, the items I set are blank again. The boxes are not greyed out, you can type information in without error. When entering YAST, it requests the root pw which also works fine. I am not using any strange characters other than letters/numbers. I am going in to the screen by clicking network devices-->Netword Card-->Host Name and Name Server.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a server which runs postfix. The same physical server is running web and mail services for several (3) domains, which I have reserved for future use (nothing serious or valuable, just freetime activities). Server "physical" address (also static IP) is myhost.domain.com. Lets say the other domains it serves are first.fi, second.net ad third.com. I can receive mails OK sent to all of these, I have added those 3 "extra" domains to the mydestination line in main.cf. Sending e-mails also works fine, but the sender is [URL].. I want the sender to be firstname@first.fi
I tried setting sender_canonical_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sender_canonical in main.cf, and sender_canonical contains:
user1 Firstname1@first.fi
user2 Firstname2@first.fi
and I run postmap /etc/postfix/sender_canonical, and e-started postfix. But if I send e-mail as user1, the sender becomes [URl].. so it re-writed the username part, but hot the hostname/domain part. I also tried setting smtp_generic_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/generic but the results were similar. What do I need to do to re-write sender for user1 (regardless of host/domain) to Firstname1@first.fi?
I am managing a Fedora dedicated server with Plesk 9 and just recently moved the email for one of the domains on the server to Google Apps for business. Unfortunately, I cannot get email messages from the website forms to deliver to addresses on this domain. For anyone familiar with Plesk, I have disabled mail in the hosting settings by un-checking the "Activate mail service on domain" checkbox and there are no accounts in the domain. (Other readings have indicated that this should be enough to allow mail to be directed to the appropriate server). My MX records correctly point to the google apps mail server.
I'm quite comfortable with command line, but I know almost nothing about the sendmail program or its alternatives and my attempts at researching how to set up this relay has been futile. I'm pretty sure I'm using sendmail and not qmail or anything else from what the red-hat style "alternatives" symlinks point to. I've also checked the /etc/mail/access, domaintable, mailertable, sendmail.cf, virtusertable, local-host-names, sendmail.cf, and submit.cf and most of these files are empty (except the .cf files), and the sendmail.cf and submit.cf make no reference to the domain in question.
Here is the output from a sendmail test that was was not received. (Private data omitted of course).

I have setup a home based web server to host a photo blog for myself and my friends. I will be running wordpress and possibly a phpbb3 forum. I'd like to open this to discuss server administration, server setup, and server maintenance. However, I have a pretty good start on all of those but serving a domain name to my static ip. Here my static ip is 24.10.202.144. I registered a domain through [URL]... It appears that I have the domain working to forward to my ip. However, I am still getting this output file from apache.
[code]...
I have tested the domain name across a few different computers on different ips. It works appropriately. I just want to make sure I have it set correctly on the (apache) server side of things. Then I can get more into Zone Editing etc.
I have installed CentOS 5.4 machine named test.example.com (192.168.1.1)File /etc/hosts contains:127.0.0.1 test.example.com test localhost.localdomain localhostI have read that the loopback addres should not be assigned to host name,only to localhost and the host name should be assigned to 192.168.1.1, like this:127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost192.168.1.1 test.example.com testIs there any reason why it should be one or another way?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe're having an issue with HTTP POST file uploads on our two Ubuntu PCs. For some reason, whenever one of our users attempts to submit a file in an HTML form, the request times out, usually with a 500 Internal Server Error message. This problem is not limited to one site, but occurs on all sites that use file uploads. Also, the problem does not appear to be with our network, as a Windows 7 PC on the same network can upload files to the same sites without any difficulties. The problem is not browser-specific; we have tested with Firefox, Epiphany, and Google Chrome and all produce the same results. The issue is relatively new, and was first observed within the last month; before this time, both machines had no problems uploading files.
Does anyone have ANY idea what could be causing this? I've tried a number of things, including rebooting the PCs, rebooting the network, disabling IPv6, etc. I'm not very experienced in Linux system administration, but I can use the terminal and am familiar with some terminal-based diagnostic tools, so if you need any additional info or want me to try something, please let me know! I've exhausted my own computer knowledge with regards to finding a solution to this problem.

I installed the citadel suite on ubuntu server 9.10 Email obviously works fine internally. I tried to setup a smart host to send my mail through as my isp(Verizon) obviously blocks port 25. I tried to send out the Verizon smtp server on port 587. In the Administration> Domain names and Internet mail configuration>Smarthosts.My smarthost entry on the citadel configureation page above was usernameassword@outgoing.verizon.net:587 but after sending an outgoing email, it comes back with a "invalid/host-not-in-DNS return address not allowed"
I have also tried using gmail and a hotmail account with the respective smtp address's in but they come back with "Must issue a STARTTLS command first".I have researched both messages and come up with squat that has helped me.
I know that my mail will have to go out through a smarthost of somekind. So is am I on the right track with choosing verizon/gmail/or something else as my smtp relay, or is there a free service out there that I can send email through(haven't found one if there is)
Anyone else ever setup Citadel and got around their isp blocking port 25?I am also not sold on citadel, it was just the first/ nicest looking one that I found.

I have a domain I have never used for some years, the registrar put some adds in it, now I have hosted and configured this domain as a VPS and have started to put files in it but when I enter the domain in the browser, it still displays the adds index of the registrar although I have my own index file in /var/www/. I thought the domain was automatically "taken over" (I do not know the correct technical expression) by the hosting company when my hosting is accepted by the host after they install a bare distro. Obviously, my expectation was incorrect and there is something else I need to do.

I have a Ubuntu Server that is correctly set up and has been working for awhile. It currently has a domain (Registered by GoDaddy) and it is used as the main. I just bought another domain (From GoDaddy) and I want it to connect to the same server but a different section to host a second site completely separate from the first.
So this is how I want it to be setup:
Domain1 = /var/www/
Domain2 = /var/www/website2
When I put Domain1 in the url like www.domain1.com it will connect to /var/www/
When I put Domain2 in the url like www.domain2.com it will connect to /var/www/website2
I'm running CentOS 5.4 with sendmail. My computer hostname is bob.domain.com. Whenever I would nc -v 127.0.0.1 25 into sendmail I would get bob.domain.com on the banner. Whenever I send out email the emails would be user@bob.domain.com. I wanted the email to show up as user@domain.com. So in the etc/mail/sendmail.cf file I changed the line
Code:
Dj$w.hostname.com
to this
Code:
Djhostname.com
Now when I enter sendmail I see domain.com in the banner so I know the change took place. However, when I send email using
Code:
mail -s "test" xxx@xxx.com
then email still goes out as user@bob.domain.com. What other changes do I need to make?
