View 6 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Postfix - Cache - Logging - Taking Up All Disk Space - Limit / Turn Off?
Feb 22, 2010I'm working on a few servers running centos and using postfix. I don't know what the exact problem is, but we are having problems with the disk space being maxed out at 100 gigs. What we think the problem is...is that postfix is either caching or logging all the emails we send out. We sent 250k emails (500kb apiece) over the weekend and we were having trouble with that quantity. It seems some of those email were queued up for retry sending...but we didn't have sufficient disk space for that? Something broke - I'm not sure what.
What I want to do is to find and change the config file that has to do with postfix email retrying - possibly limit this (not sure if this will fix my problem). Or, turn off /limit any way that postfix logs/caches emails so that it won't take up all the disk space when queued up for retry... Again, I'm totally lost here (on both what's going on, and how to fix it). I'm not sure what more information is needed to address this problem

View 9 Replies View RelatedFedora Security :: Disable Logging In As Root In Console?
Feb 22, 2010I wanted to disable root logins in console, so I searched for that. I found that if I change root's bash to "/sbin/nologin" in "/etc/passwd", root user will not be able to login. So I did that. But when I wanted to use sudo command, it didn't show me root bash, but it only do the same thing as logging in as root in single user mode (shows message that this account is disabled). So, how I can disable root logins, but keep enabled sudo command for standard users?
View 6 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Enable - Disable Logging In A Bash Script ?
Oct 19, 2010My objective is pretty simple: To have a variable within a bash script where I can switch between logging to file or screen.
Simple example of what I am trying to do:
Code:
So, as you can see, I have a variable which clears the log path if the user variable vLOG is not 'Y'. This should mean the user can run the script from the command line and view all the output (instead of it going to a log file).
The problem is that with the final line of the script (which ultimately tests the intention), I don't get the required result as the vLOGPATH variable is just passed to echo as text.
I have tried using 'echo -e' and getting some backslashes in there, I have tried using eval but I am either using them incorrectly.

Oct 4, 2010so i set out to change the default smtp port the server uses because my ISP blocks port 25 and i need the email to work in outlook. this morning i could receive email, but not send it. so i did some research and thought that i needed to edit the master.cf file in /etc/postfix/ by commenting out this line: smtp inet n - n - - smtpd -oand replace it with587 inet n - n - - smtpd (587 being the port i want to use)somewhere along the lines postfix server stopped running and now i cannot get it to start.if i try using SSH it crashes immediately and if i restart it in simple control panel nothing happens
View 7 Replies View RelatedServer :: Updated Postfix Not Running After Transferring Over Users From Older Postfix?
Feb 25, 2011I recently moved over user from an old box running postfix(v 2.0.16) over to rhel 6 running postfix (v mail_version = 2.6.6). ive tried to make sure all the files are of correct permissions and that the main.cf file is configured corectly. However there is something wrong as when i run postfix: service postfix server i get no error but when checking the status:service postfix status i get: master dead but pid file exists Looking into /var/log/mailog i find this line being the issue:
Feb 25 16:24:39 puny1 postfix/master[3517]: fatal: fifo_listen: create fifo public/pickup: Permission denied
I gather this is a file permission issue and ive tried to make sure the public folder in /var/spool/postfix is correctly set but still no avail.
CentOS 5 :: Disable SSLv2 In Postfix?
Sep 1, 2011I would like to disable SSLv2 in Postfix but unfortunately Google has failed to produce a suitable answer. There are numerous posts on blogs and forums and such that do not appear to actually work. For example, one such post (which has been copied about quite a bit) says to use the following main.cf directives:
smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols = SSLv3, TLSv1
smtpd_tls_mandatory_ciphers = medium, high
But if I run:
$ openssl s_client -connect xxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx:25 -starttls smtp -ssl2
the command is successful and SSLv2 is still negotiated.
The Postfix documentation does not provide an example of this particular case but I don't think it would matter much if it did since I somewhat doubt that anyone other than the developers themselves fully understand how these directives actually work.
How do I disable SSLv2 in Postfix and more generally disable ciphers that are considered to be weak?

Server :: Proxy Server Software Based On Simple Logging Requirements
May 18, 2010we need to log web access of a certain set of users for analysis. We decided to setup a proxy server which just logs all the requests but does not do anything else like caching/access control etc.All users will be using a fixed set of computers and hence we can redirect their requests to the proxy. I came across Squid, but found it to be too heavy for our requirements. Is there any other proxy-server software that is good enough for what we want or is Squid the only way?

May 18, 2010I have an issue with users logging into a server. There are multiple (5 or so) database admins that have to log into a windows 2003 server and from there log into a red hat server. Once they are in the rhel box they execute an app (let's say xclock) that gives them an xwindows session on their desktop. Currently only one person can do this at a time, but they have asked me to configure it to allow multiple users to log into the red hat box from the windows server and run an xwindow.

This has happened before, and I thougthat was caused by iptables' rulesBut now I turned off iptables and the problem remains.I tried tcpdump on my machine(client running OpenSUSE 11.2), and it shows that after the freezing, client will still sent ack message to the server.So I think this may be caused by the server.Note that I can ping the server smoothly.Does anybody meet this problem before

Server :: Postfix Relayhost Not Working, If Domain Hosted On Same Server, But MX Points Outside?
Jun 23, 2010i compiled and install postfix, and i using relayhost that point to my ISP. but my "DNS server" is on the same server where is installed postfix. and there is running apache with vhosts so i have domain that hosted on same server and in zonefiles of my domain my MX records points to Google Apps, to google's MX servers. But when i try send E-mail via sendmail to mail@mydomainonsameserver.com it not deliver mail to Google Apps totally, if i try to send to another E-mail everything fine it deliver it. so finally i done research this problem in Internet. And find that need to disable deliver mail to localhost(localdelivery)as i think postfix understand that the domain point to the same server where postfix have itself. and try to deliver mail local. but zonefile MX record even the domain on same server can point to another server outside. So i disabled localdelivery in postfix. and problem not fixed

General :: Logging Into A Remote Server?
Jan 3, 2010I want to login to my company's server (remote) from my room. I have the server address, so I use this command to login :
Code:
#ssh root@X.X.X.X
It waits for a very long time and then returns with error connection timed out port 22.
I configured these settings in the remote server :
Code:
#/etc/init.d/iptables stop
Then I connect via ssh from my home but still the same error.
Then in the config file /etc/ssh/sshd_config, I uncomment the line : ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
I connect via ssh again from home but still the same error.
The connection is not denied in hosts.deny and hosts.allow.
How do I get the connection up and running?
