Hi,

The thing is, my local user get authenticated but for people connecting from outside my network... there is no authentication. I mean they are not asked for authentication( they can relay without authentication) ... but my loacl user DO get asked for authentication when they try to relay . Any idea why this should happen ?

Regards,
Vipul.
