Re: Can i configure my HP-UX server as a mail server ????
Of course its possible.
So the exchange server can't send mail to the HP-UX server.
How precisely are we trying to do this? If you forward all exchange mail to the HP-UX server it should get there. Thats probably not what you want to do.
Few ways to get through this.
Lets say the servers hostname is mail1.your.net
To reach the user boomer on that system the mail would have to be addressed as follows,
to:boomer@mail1.your.net
If the hostname mail1.your.net resolves to the IP address of the server I just named mail1, then the mail should get there, if you have modified your access file to permit mail from exchange to unix.
There are a lof of concepts here that I will present in summary form that are elaborated on sendmail.org
General:
1) Configure name resolution for the target mail server either in dns or hosts file. Exchange has a file called lmhosts
2) Configure access from exchange to unix on the unix mail server. You change the access file and then compile the sendmail macros.

# Sript that does some of the work for you after modification of configuration files.
