I have installed the package mailutils by following command:
sudo apt-get install mailutils
Now I want to send mail using the following format:
$mail <username>@gmail.com
I am doing the normal procedures but the mail is not sent.
I recently upgrade my server from Jaunty to Lucid. The mail command no longer works for my scripts, so I installed mailutils. However, when I try to run mail, it doesn't seem to find it:
Code:
/home/frank# apt-get install mailutils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

So I installed and configured nut. used the help of 2 tutorials, [URL].. But I got most of just reading the comments in the /etc/nut configfiles and modifying them as described there (tut's where slightly outdated) .
So I pull out the plug and nothing happens. The script I invoke with the nut user returns a execute error 127 (shows in daemon.log). So I execute the command (with argument) as my user, and that works. when executing it as the nut user I get.
Code:
Cannot open `/root/.mailrc': Permission denied
This because I invoke a mail command by the script.
Code:
echo "Spanning is weg! Da spel wordt hier afgesloten als de batterie plat is!" | /usr/bin/mail -s"UPS monitor" mutrax@localhost
So My question is simple. How do I get nut mailing without to much risk? It'll probeably be something simple, but I don't want to grant evry troublesom thing admin rights. Anyway, If someone is intrested how I configured nut, I'll be glad to post it here.
I use Evolution mail and use 2 PCs When I send mail it saves it to my current PC but not to the other PC so instead i want it to save the sent to the email server i'm using.

I have got a nagios server running on my network, The configuration seems to be okay but each time there is a service alert notification, and an e-mail is sent to the contact group, Nagios continuously sends e-mail over and over again. Do anyone know of a way to set Nagios directives to only send one e-mail per alert without it flooding mail boxes.

i have an server which have my site on it, server have an public ip and site works fine..the thing that i done to enable mail server is :
1.select sendmail option as mail server(in joomla).
2.install and configure sendmail in server (which ubuntu installed on it )
**if i use my website locally mail server works fine i can send message and receive , but when i use web site from Internet mail server seems not working at all
i basically had this system installed for our mail system.The setup is as follows:
1. Operating system installed is Debian ver. 5.0.3
2. Roundcube is installed as a webmail(if its right for me to say that)
3. The server is hosted right here at our offices
4.The server uses relay system to send mail i.e. relays all our mails to our ISP
That all i can say about the configurations becuase thats as much as i understand it.The problem now is that we are not able to send or recieve emails from both internal and external.I tried to send mail to a collegue in the office who is on our local LAN,Roundcube says sent successfully but the person does not recieve the mail.i tried to send to my yahoo address but nothing.I dont know where these mails have been trapped.
I am trying to do something really simple with Exim. I have two machine connected together via a hub. They can ping each other. They each are running openSuse 11.2 and have Exim installed. On each machine from the command line in start Exim as a daemon by typing: sudo /usr/sbin/exim -bd -d and each machine runs through some output and sits there "Listening". Then on either machine I try to send a mail message of the form mail
(or mailx) <user>@<other node>
some text
EOT
and absolutly nothing happens! I must be doing something wrong or daft which is very basic, but I have searched all over and cannot get it to work.
Was told that I need to use Javamail for a project to send mail rather than using "mail" or "mailx". Has anyone here done this?Any pointers or sites you've used and can recommend?

I have been able to use the mail program on my old Ubuntu instasll which I found quite handy. However, it isn't functioning "out of the box" like I expected. I've tried to configure it as mail was in Ubuntu to no avail.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a bit of problem setting up sendmail on my server. I've gotten so far that I can send mail from my mail server and relay mail from my LAN computers through it. Also, local delivery seems to be working.The problem is receiving mail from other domains. When I send mail from my gmail account to any user in my domain the mail gets delivered back to gmail as it exceeds the max hop count.The mail gets bounced between my ISP mailserver which I use as smart host and between my server.The problem seems to be that my mail server won't accept any mail it is supposed to receive.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI got to establish an OpenVPN connection between two server and I have dhcpd on the client server which feeds a few SIP phones. All these phones are supposed to the register server through the tunnel.Here is the network structure:
Client CentOS:
eth0: 192.168.0.0/24
eth1:192.168.100.0/24
tun0:172.15.0.0/24
DHCPD: feeding above eth1 and all the phones with 192.168.100.0/24
If I ping 172.15.0.1 from the the Client CentOS it works all fine. Everything pings and I can even do SSH. However, the phones which obtain their ip through eth1 on the same server can not reach the 172.15.0.1. I think it's a route issue here. Can you please guide me to the right direction as to how to forward certain traffic through tun0 and leave the rest of the traffic to go through eth0?
I don't want to turn on IPTABLES as this is time consuming for me now and there is VPN setup. It has to do with setting up the routing but I am not sure.
send out lots of e-mails, except this specific one that I'm trying to send to my Member of Parliament. My ISP has blown me off and tells me it's a problem of a firewall or antivirus program on my computer (I also can't rule out my router, but I seriously doubt it has that level of sophistication).en I try to send, after about a minute I get "4.4.2 Timeout while waiting for command" which is why my ISP says this is my problem. I've looked in /var/log/messages and it doesn't give any indication that this system is blocking the e-mail. I don't think it's a firewall but how can I tell? Or what else can I try?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI use a server with 3 nics,
eth0 192.168.2.100 (internal Web, Mail)
eth1 192.168.3.100 (Default Gateway nic for clients)
eth2 192.168.3.110 (should be default Gateway for all outgoing traffic not belonging to 192.168.2.100 and 192.168.3.100)
They are all on the same machine
i cannot set eth1 or eth2 as default gateway, as outside requests to eth0 would be handled in a false manner (somehow)
is there an easy iptables-rule to say, that outgoing traffic, not belonging to my networks can be redirected to a specific NIC (eth2)?
I'm trying to find some tool on generating reports based on apache access_log files (of Common format). I found some of them (awstats, lire/logreport, weblog expert, apache logs viewer, etc..) but they generate some global and general report about the log file. Also some perl script I found they just show the Top X number of different patterns. My request is how can I generate some similar report with this output:
IP-s | Total nr. of connections | Number of pages visited | Total time of connection
So basically this is a list with every IP on the log and the respective numbers (connection/pages/time) associated.
I'm a complete beginner to administrating my own box - and have installed Ubuntu 9.04 (Jackalope).
I have it up and running - and have installed the applications that I needed.
However, I am unable to get mail to send within the network - I can send mail to external address, such as gmail, yahoo, etc, just not inside my work's network. This includes forwarding services such a spamgourmet - which redirects to my work's email addresses.
potential set up issues I can check for? I am currently using Postfix as my email server.
note: this is what I found in the syslog:

I have setup a mail server on my remote Ubuntu 10.04 server using postfix.
Using Putty to SSH to the server, I can send mail, check mail, and the server accepts mail from other domains (gmail, yahoo, hotmail etc).
However, I cannot seem to send mail using PHP functions.
I have created a "test.php" file with the following contents:
[Code].....
When I run the .php file, nothing happens, and nothing logs in the mail logs, so I'm sure the server doesnt understand the mail command in PHP files, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing it.
Apache2, PHP5, postfix, and the additional necessaries are installed (this is a webserver/mailserver on 1 box)
