Now that we're all in agreement on what relay-ctrl is, let me get
more specific about what is not happening for me with this package ;)
I check the spool directory:
---------------------------
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]# ls -l
total 0
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]#
---------------------------
I log into my server and collect my email with Eudora,
and then check the spool directory again:
------------------------------
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]# ls -l
total 0
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root workshop 0 Feb 27 12:43 63.207.13.190
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]#
------------------------------
I now check the cron log to make sure that relay-ctrl-age has run
since the timestamp on the above file:
-------------------------------
root (02/27-12:47:00-5529) CMD (/usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-age)
-------------------------------
So far so good. Now I attempt to relay a message from my
workstation at the above IP address:
--------------------------------
'553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)'.
--------------------------------
So obviously, the database isn't being updated.
Here is my invocation of tcpserver and relay-ctrl
-------------------------------
tcpserver -v -R 0 pop-3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup (fqdn - no, its the real
name not 'fqdn') \
/bin/checkpassword /usr/sbin/relay-ctrl-allow /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d
Maildir
2>&1 | \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &
--------------------------------
Here are the contents of /etc/relay-ctrl:
--------------------------------
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]# ls -l
total 6
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root qmail 4 Feb 26 18:52 expiry
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root qmail 22 Feb 26 18:52 rule
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root qmail 9 Feb 26 18:52 smtpcdb
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root qmail 11 Feb 26 18:53 smtprules
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root qmail 22 Feb 26 18:53 spooldir
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root qmail 18 Feb 26 18:54 tcprules
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]# cat *
900
:allow,RELAYCLIENT=''
smtp.cdb
smtp.rules
/var/spool/relay-ctrl
/usr/bin/tcprules
[root@hoss relay-ctrl]#
------------------------------
What is going on here? What else should I check?
Thanks,
Bill
