Neo,

Here is the set up dell-56 is the DNS server Server23 is a DHCP server. I'm trying to mail betweeen the two. These files are on my dell-56 server. Here are my files. I know that one problem was DNS. I've install a DNS server and now I don't get a responce of could not find hosts.

Now I'm getting connectrion refused by hosts...

Here are my files:

/etc/mail/access

# by default we allow relaying from localhost...
localhost.localdomain RELAY
localhost RELAY
127.0.0.1 RELAY
dell-56 OK
server23 OK
dell-80 OK


/etc/mail/local-hosts-named

# local-host-names - include all aliases for your machine here.
dell-56


/etc/hosts.allow

#
# hosts.allow This file describes the names of the hosts which are
# allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
# by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#

ALL:ALL


/etc/mail/sendmail.cf Just a few cut from it


Cwlocalhost
# file containing names of hosts for which we receive email
Fw/etc/mail/local-host-names

# my official domain name
# ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your domain
#Dj$w.Foo.COM

CP.

# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DS
# access_db acceptance class
C{Accept}OK RELAY


C{ResOk}OKR


# Hosts for which relaying is permitted ($=R)
FR-o /etc/mail/relay-domains



I hope you can help my. If you need other files let me know.

I just try to telnet to my smtp port and getting connection refused.

[dell-56]> telnet dell-56 25
....Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refuse.

I don't have ipchain or iptables running.


THANKS
