I can't believe it. I've installed well over 40 times in the last two weeks a "perfect install" core 4, and then ispconfig. I could never get the mail server to authenticate remote clients.

Has anybody other than the mods been able to install this rig onto Fedora core 4? Or 5? I seriously would appreciate any insight as to why I am not successful.
