Sendmail Relay issue

Griselda Sanchez — Thu, 13 Jul 2006 16:33:35 GMT

Hi
I read this threat http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1038262.
I need something like this, but I have dos HP-UX, lets call them BOX1 and BOX2. The BOX1 is on a public LAN, so I can use sendmail(here I have the "smart relay which is the one that sends the mails thru the internet), and BOX2 is on a private LAN, but the network group open the SMTP from BOX2 to BOX1, so right now they can see each other. That I want to do, is configure the BOX2 to send the mails to the BOX1, and then the BOX1 send those mails with the smart relay that already works.
So I configured DSBOX1 on the sendmail.cf on BOX2, and on the BOX1 I configured the /etc/mail/sednmail.cw the BOX2 as a allowe host that can send mail to BOX1, but it didn't work.
Anyone can help me.
thanks

You should configure the DH option to make BOX2 a mailhub for BOX1.

So - box1 is working fine right?

Okay.

Did you setup an access.db?

in /etc/mail/access

box2.itsdomain.com RELAY

tab between box2.itsdomain.com and RELAY

makemap hash /etc/mail/access
restart sendmail....

Also, from box2 do a test:

sendmail -v -d8 -d38 you@yourdomain.com

type some text

.

Post the output...

hi,

- what is the error reported in /var/adm/syslog/mail.log on both BOX1 and BOX2, right after a failed attempt, please post here

- what version run on either system, please post output of:
echo quit | sendmail -bs

- is BOX2 MX resolvable on BOX1?
box1> nslookup -q=mx box2

Hi again!
It alredy works!!
I add the file /etc/mail/access on BOX2
box1 RELAY
And finally remove the DM on BOX2(becasue I had this configure) then the BOX1 accept the mails from BOX2 and sendit through the internet.

Thanks a lot..
