Hi. I'm kind of new to qmail, so my question probably sounds pretty
elementary.
I have a qmail-ldap server setup. Right now it only relays off of my
local subnet (which I refer to below as a.b.c.) as per the
instructions in the /etc/tcp.smtp file
I want to implement SMTP AUTH so that I can roam outside my LAN. I
changed my supervise/qmail-smtpd/run file from this:
If you want to relay mails while you roam outside your LAN, you cannot
have last line in tcp.smtp as
:deny
It should be
:allow,SMTPAUTH=""
QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild`
NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild`
MAXSMTPD=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
LOCAL=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/me`
#some irrevelant if statements removed from email
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 25
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1
Try increasing LOGLEVEL to see whats happening.
You have to stop qmail-smtpd for that.
Then run smtpd like this.
# cd /path/to/qmail-smtpd
# env LOGLEVEL=255 ./run
Then try sending mail from anther terminal, see what you get here.
to this, because of the text written on life with qmail-ldap, section
13.2:
#everything unchanged except for this last line of code:
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 25
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /var/qmail/bin/auth_smtp /usr/bin/true 2>&1
then I modified the /etc/tcp.smtp from this:
a.b.c.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
:deny
to this:
a.b.c.:deny
I've also tried variations of this, like
a.b.c.:allow,RELAYCLIENT="",SMTPAUTH=""
:deny
but whatever I do to attempt to solve this problem either leads me
wide open for relaying, or doesn't even let me send the auth
credentials to begin with. Can someone please tell me the proper
way of going around this problem?
