Hello All,
With the help of Ken Jones at inter7.com, I have qmail running on a
slightly faster pent-133 (as opposed to a pent-100), and things are working
well, however, how fast should an SMTP connection take to this box (it has
a static IP which is part of our companys class C), and runs NAT via
IPchains, smtp/pop3 via qmail v1.03, sshd 1.1.27, samba, etc...to send a mail
message takes on average (since this morning) about 20 seconds, and then it
is gone...running tcpserver with -H -R, there is a caching DNS server running
on the pent-133, and lookups go quite fast (IMO), and UUnet handles our DNS
table...Any ideas guys?
Or a better question is how long should an SMTP connection take to form on
machine which IP address range is in 192.168.3.x (and that range is listed
in tcp.smtp.cdb)...<blink>
