Hello,I passed to tcpserver and all seems to work correctly:
now I have /etc/tcp.smpt file with :allow rules,
but I'd have some doubts to resolve:
1) May I remove now all my rcpthosts names except my hostname?
2) Shall I use supervise with tcpserver?
actually my start scripts are:
#/etc/rc.d/init.d/tcpserverd
#!/bin/sh
# Startup script for tcpserverd hackerized by kak Wed April 4 2001
#
#
# description: a tcpserver for qmail.
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -v -u 502 -g 501 0 smtp
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \
2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &
exit 0
#/etc/rc.d/rc.local
#
/bin/echo "Metto qmail in background..."
csh -cf ' /var/qmail/rc & '
I also installed djbdns aiming to use it for DNSCACHE and to enhance my small
LAN,but I guess it is not working since a "dnsqr a" to my host failed:
[ik5bcu@linux bin]$ dnsqr a linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org
1 linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org:
timed out
while a query to localhost works ok:
[ik5bcu@linux bin]$ dnsqr a localhost
1 localhost:
43 bytes, 1+1+0+0 records, response, noerror
query: 1 localhost
answer: localhost 655360 A 127.0.0.1
I use now supervise for djbdns:
[ik5bcu@linux bin]$ ps -ax|grep dns
718 ? S 0:00 supervise dnscache
720 ? S 0:00 supervise tinydns
722 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/tinydns
725 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/dnscache
but may be something is missed.
Beside this do you think I made a good choice (attempting)to install a dns
considering that:
1) I have not any BIND on my system
2) I have only private hostnames and IPs
3) My INTERNET connection uses a dynamic IP supplied by my ISP
Thanks and sorry for my long mail.
