I think i have managed to reproduce that error on my a/c. I got a bad
connect and tried to send some mail to a hotmail a/c thru cal2. I got the
same message u are getting -relay denied , THAT TOO AFTER THE MAIL WENT
without much trouble. The mesage disappeared after reconnecting. Yes the
number in q is 172226. I think that busy signal is being sent to us as a
denied signal message with Relay denied. It is quite easy, just get a broken
smtp server! I think some timeout problem is the root of this problem. The
other day Indra couldn't reproduce your problem on my Machine.The connect
was stable and fast then. Again , i think this is a major part of the
problem as i got this message from Cal2 , where the Nameserver cache and
host file and reverse look are working *Just Fine*.
Arup, could u believe it, I got a SOA record during a ls-d and ls-a as well
as ls -t in the cal nameserver! What the heck entries like SOA, @ , refresh
etc are doing in a domain listing is a matter requiring some serious
thought. Indra saw that list. It is quite difficult to get that listing even
by writing rubbish to named.ca or named .root or any other file! named
simply rejects it and dies .HOW the heck these entries got on the domain
list is truly intriguing me. Again , the reverse lokup is not running on
cal. From my trace times , it seems that giascl01 is responding for cal's
name queries(RARP). Perhaps a timeout is causing this problem for u guys1
How about increasing the TTL and trying again?
