I hope somebody will be able to help me with below.
I wanted to do these things using the newly installed QMT mail server in
CentOS5. I followed the instructions from
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/CentOS_5_QmailToaster_Install#Getting_Started
web site.
* Assign Static IP address (Internet interface)
* Assign private IP address ( as a local interface)
* block all other services and just allow smtp/pop/web access access
coming in from Internet and local interface
* and how to verify if configured properly
We are a small business and housing our own email server is the best
option for us since we need local and Internet accessible mail server.
I also, wanted to try to upgrade using QTP but can't find the correct
documents to do it.
Thank you very much for the support.

I am newbie admin of a small business and recently I decided to create a
in-house email server using QMT.
I already set it up and it was working properly locally and it can send
emails outside too. I have two LAN cards available in the machine but
when I first setup the mail server I just assigned one local IP address
(because I still don't have the static IP then) and just used existing
DNS that we have. Now I have the static IP available and I would need to
assign the new IP to the other LAN card (Internet) and allow only
incoming smtp/pop connections to the mail server. Can anyone help me get
a detailed document or site that can help me understand how to do it,
secure it and manage it? I don't want our mail server to be available
today and tomorrow it was already hacked.
I am using CentOS 5.0 and latest packages of QMT.
Thank you for the help.
Tom
