Tutorial: http://howtoforge.com/virtual_users_and_domains_with_postfix_debian_etch_p5 I am at the last step... everything is working exactly as shown... except the last step... step 12. I type in Code: telnet localhost 25 and get: Code: Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. the result of Code: netstat -tap is Code: Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:45409 *:* LISTEN 2595/rpc.statd tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:10024 *:* LISTEN 2107/amavisd (maste tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:10025 *:* LISTEN 2517/master tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 2169/mysqld tcp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* LISTEN 1859/portmap tcp 0 0 *:auth *:* LISTEN 2450/inetd tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:* LISTEN 2517/master tcp6 0 0 *:imaps *:* LISTEN 2417/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 *:pop3s *:* LISTEN 2436/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 *:pop3 *:* LISTEN 2422/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 *:imap2 *:* LISTEN 2405/couriertcpd tcp6 0 0 *:www *:* LISTEN 2644/apache2 tcp6 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 2546/sshd tcp6 0 0 *:https *:* LISTEN 2644/apache2 tcp6 0 740 etch1.{mydomainname}.com:ssh ::ffff:192.168.0.1:2566 ESTABLISHED2692/0 everything up until step 12, has been smooth, and now, it is not any help? or thoughts? ** just on a side note, the local IP of this machine i have set to 192.168.0.151 (incase that makes any difference)
wow... talk about being TOUCHY! Code: postconf -e 'mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8' instead i put (typo) Code: postconf -e 'mynetworks = 127.0.0.1/8'
