Hi all,
I just installed qmail onto my system following the instructions
to the tee but when I tried following the directions in the TEST.recieve
file(telneting to port 25 on my machine) I get nothing
this is what I get:
[root@manageserv /etc]# telnet 0 25
Trying 0.0.0.0...
Connected to 0.
Escape character is '^]'.
I should get a response from the server with a 220 response but I'm not
I checked and rechecked my inetd.conf and the line that I am using is
smtp stream tcp nowait qmaild /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
with everything on one line..
What am I doing wrong..can anyone help me with this problem? I've used
qmail on a few of my other servers and the installation has been
smooth..I don't know what I am doing wrong here.
Or let me ask..can I have qmail-smptd be running all the time instead of
calling it from inetd.conf?
Sincerely,
