The Perfect Setup - Debian Etch (Debian 4.0) some trouble

firstly, sorry for my english, i am a frenchie.
i do the howto step by step, at the end of page 4,i had that
tcp 0 0 localhost:mysql *:* LISTEN 2723/mysqld
instead of
tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 2723/mysqld

the step before i don't find bind-address = 127.0.0.1
but something about socket-please what is wrong here?

many thanks

 

what does it say when you run

hostname

?

 

# hostname
or #hostname -f
return
servtel.daniel80.net
it's my server domaine

thanks
daniel

 

What's in /etc/mysql/my.cnf?

 

the content is:

first a lot of line beginning by #
and
# Remember to edit /etc/mysql/debian.cnf when changing the socket location.
[client]
port = 3306
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
# Here is entries for some specific programs
# The following values assume you have at least 32M ram
# This was formally known as [safe_mysqld]. Both versions are currently parsed.
[mysqld_safe]
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
nice = 0
[mysqld]
#
# * Basic Settings
#
user = mysql
pid-file = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
port = 3306
basedir = /usr
datadir = /var/lib/mysql
tmpdir = /tmp
"/etc/mysql/my.cnf" 140 lines, 3638 characters

Many thanks for your replies.

my config p3 766mhz 128 mo ram 100mbps disk 8go ide
i use putty to configure just a the beginning of step 5 of the howto .

 

I relocated the server since the beginning by following step by step your howto
Now it works
I am sorry to have you bored

Many thanks

11 Postfix With SMTP-AUTH And TLS

In order to install Postfix with SMTP-AUTH and TLS do the following steps:

apt-get install postfix libsasl2 sasl2-bin libsasl2-modules libdb3-util procmail

You will be asked two questions. Answer as follows:

General type of configuration? <-- Internet Site
Mail name? <-- server1.example.com

Then run

dpkg-reconfigure postfix

Again, you'll be asked some questions:

General type of configuration? <-- Internet Site
Where should mail for root go <-- [blank]
Mail name? <-- server1.example.com
Other destinations to accept mail for? (blank for none) <-- server1.example.com, localhost.example.com, localhost.localdomain, localhost
Force synchronous updates on mail queue? <-- No
Local networks? <-- 127.0.0.0/8
Use procmail for local delivery? <-- Yes
Mailbox size limit <-- 0
Local address extension character? <-- +
Internet protocols to use? <-- all
Remove ads

Next, do this:

postconf -e 'smtpd_sasl_local_domain ='
postconf -e 'smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes'
postconf -e 'smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous'
postconf -e 'broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes'
postconf -e 'smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination'
postconf -e 'inet_interfaces = all'
echo 'pwcheck_method: saslauthd' >> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf
echo 'mech_list: plain login' >> /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf

Afterwards we create the certificates for TLS:

mkdir /etc/postfix/ssl
cd /etc/postfix/ssl/
openssl genrsa -des3 -rand /etc/hosts -out smtpd.key 1024

chmod 600 smtpd.key
openssl req -new -key smtpd.key -out smtpd.csr

openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -in smtpd.csr -signkey smtpd.key -out smtpd.crt

openssl rsa -in smtpd.key -out smtpd.key.unencrypted

mv -f smtpd.key.unencrypted smtpd.key
openssl req -new -x509 -extensions v3_ca -keyout cakey.pem -out cacert.pem -days 3650

Next we configure Postfix for TLS:

postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_auth_only = no'
postconf -e 'smtp_use_tls = yes'
postconf -e 'smtpd_use_tls = yes'
postconf -e 'smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes'
postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.key'
postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.crt'
postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem'
postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1'
postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_received_header = yes'
postconf -e 'smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s'
postconf -e 'tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom'
postconf -e 'myhostname = server1.example.com'

The file /etc/postfix/main.cf should now look like this:

cat /etc/postfix/main.cf

# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version


# Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first
# line of that file to be used as the name. The Debian default
# is /etc/mailname.
#myorigin = /etc/mailname

smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Debian/GNU)
biff = no

# appending .domain is the MUA's job.
append_dot_mydomain = no

# Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings
#delay_warning_time = 4h

# TLS parameters
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.crt
smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/ssl/smtpd.key
smtpd_use_tls = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${queue_directory}/smtpd_scache
smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${queue_directory}/smtp_scache

# See /usr/share/doc/postfix/TLS_README.gz in the postfix-doc package for
# information on enabling SSL in the smtp client.

myhostname = server1.example.com
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
myorigin = /etc/mailname
mydestination = server1.example.com, localhost.example.com, localhost.localdomain, localhost
relayhost =
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION"
mailbox_size_limit = 0
recipient_delimiter = +
inet_interfaces = all
inet_protocols = all
smtpd_sasl_local_domain =
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,permit_mynetworks,reject_unauth_destination
smtpd_tls_auth_only = no
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_tls_note_starttls_offer = yes
smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem
smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom

Restart Postfix:

/etc/init.d/postfix restart

Authentication will be done by saslauthd. We have to change a few things to make it work properly. Because Postfix runs chrooted in /var/spool/postfix we have to do the following:

mkdir -p /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd

Now we have to edit /etc/default/saslauthd in order to activate saslauthd. Set START to yes and change the line OPTIONS="-c" to OPTIONS="-c -m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd -r":

vi /etc/default/saslauthd

#
# Settings for saslauthd daemon
#

# Should saslauthd run automatically on startup? (default: no)
START=yes

# Which authentication mechanisms should saslauthd use? (default: pam)
#
# Available options in this Debian package:
# getpwent -- use the getpwent() library function
# kerberos5 -- use Kerberos 5
# pam -- use PAM
# rimap -- use a remote IMAP server
# shadow -- use the local shadow password file
# sasldb -- use the local sasldb database file
# ldap -- use LDAP (configuration is in /etc/saslauthd.conf)
#
# Only one option may be used at a time. See the saslauthd man page
# for more information.
#
# Example: MECHANISMS="pam"
MECHANISMS="pam"

# Additional options for this mechanism. (default: none)
# See the saslauthd man page for information about mech-specific options.
MECH_OPTIONS=""

# How many saslauthd processes should we run? (default: 5)
# A value of 0 will fork a new process for each connection.
THREADS=5

# Other options (default: -c)
# See the saslauthd man page for information about these options.
#
# Example for postfix users: "-c -m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd"
# Note: See /usr/share/doc/sasl2-bin/README.Debian
OPTIONS="-c -m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd -r"

Now start saslauthd:

/etc/init.d/saslauthd start

To see if SMTP-AUTH and TLS work properly now run the following command:

telnet localhost 25

ehlo localhost(i get this)

server:/etc/postfix/ssl# /etc/init.d/saslauthd start
server:/etc/postfix/ssl# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain.
Escape character is '^]'.

ehlo localhost



and it's stay on this doing nothing
when i type quit (do nothing )
what is the problem ....... anyone can help me
thanks to anyone help thanks a lot
and why it does this ......
help thanks

Please add

Code:

smtp_host_lookup = dns, native

to your /etc/postfix/main.cf and restart Postfix.

What's the output of

Code:

ls -l /etc/init.d

?

The correct command is

Code:

apt-get install postfix libsas[B][COLOR="Red"]l[/COLOR][/B]2 sas[B][COLOR="Red"]l[/COLOR][/B]2-bin libsas[B][COLOR="Red"]l[/COLOR][/B]2-modules libdb3-util procmail

It's an l, not a 1.
You can prevent such misunderstandings by simply copy & paste from the tutorial.

 

hi but the telnet not working

telnet localhost is not working the same any option
or should i reinstall it from the begining let me know thanks for ur help

 

What errros do you have no in your mail log? What's in /etc/default/saslauthd and /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf?
