http://www.hserus.net/postfix.html (which is a copy and paste from the postfix FAQ) > myhostname = abc.my.domain > mydomain = vsnl.net don't set mydomain like this... or myorigin either. Set bogus (but fully qualified) domain names like example.com (which is guaranteed not to resolve). Then use a mail client that sets the envelope sender properly (like mutt - http://www.hserus.net/muttrc.html for more) > relayhost = 203.197.12.9 Here's your mistake. You need to use domain literal addressing if you specify an IP as your relayhost. As the sample postfix main.cf on freebsd (/usr/ports/mail/postfix preferably - postfix-current looks a bit older than postfix right now) #relayhost = [an.ip.add.ress] --srs -- Suresh Ramasubramanian <----> mallet <at> efn dot org EMail Sturmbannfuhrer, Lower Middle Class Unix Sysadmin [Linux One Stanza Tip] From : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LOST #119 -**< Sub : How to make a Loadlin bootdisk >**- This is the simplest way making your own boot disk. Totally a DOS prompt job. In DOS [1] "format a: /s/v" [2] Copy two files your kernel (usually vmlinuz) and "loadlin.exe" to it, [3] and make a one-line config.sys to point to your / device and boot: e.g. "shell=a:\loadlin.exe a:\vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2 ro" _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
