Hi, I have installed postfix on my vps(centos4.5) .It has plesk that by default installed qmail. So I remove qmail rpm . Now when I telnet to [root@vps111 ~]# telnet 127.0.0.1 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to 127.0.0.1. Escape character is '^]'. 220 vps111.dom.com ESMTP Postfix ---its OK ifconfig venet0 inet addr:127.0.0.1 venet0:0 inet addr:1.4.4.14 venet0:1 inet addr:1.4.4.15 It does not have any iptable firewall . [root@vps111 ~]# iptables -nL Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination I can connect to the server through ssh . But I can not telnet to 25 port of any of those ip(1.4.4.14/15) from inside or outside. [root@vps111 ~]# telnet 1.4.4.14 25 Trying 1.4.4.14... telnet: connect to address 1.4.4.14: Connection refused [root@vps111 ~]# telnet 1.4.4.15 25 Trying 1.4.4.15... telnet: connect to address 1.4.4.15: Connection refused Also my /etc/hosts file is also rewritten ... by some old value ? Can any one suggest what to do ? Please help me.Thanks.
What's the output of Code: netstat -tap ? What's the value of inet_interfaces in /etc/postfix/main.cf?
Hi, Thx for reply . The postfix problem is solved . But there is another problem . My /etc/hosts file is rewritten by a process (I faill to detect ,how?) I have change the/etc/hosts ...but after reboot it rewritten by old value along with my values . Can you give me idea ...what to do ?
I think this happens because it's a virtual machine. The hosts file is generated from the virtual machine's configuration file (which is on the host system) each time the vm is booted.
