Any chance on getting one of these patches included in qmail toaster, from the jms1 page: http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/combined-details.shtml
- qmail-1.03-bind-interface.patch<http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/qmail-1.03-bind-interface.patch>lets you control the "source IP" from which outgoing connections appear from a machine with multiple IP addresses. This file on qmail.org<http://qmail.org/local-bind>(local copy <http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/local-bind.txt>) describes the patch more clearly, as well as the format of the */var/qmail/control/bindroutes * file which it uses. I have since updated this patch- see the newbind.patch<http://qmail.jms1.net/patches/newbind.patch>information below, under version 7.05. I'm having problems sending to some hosts, getting this error message: *User and password not set, continuing without authentication. 2xx.xxx.144.xx does not like recipient. Remote host said: 554 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [my.1st.ip.addr] Giving up on 2xx.xxx.144.xx.* It seems to be because mail.myserver.net resolves to my.2nd.ip.addr (also on the same machine) and the default interface is my.1st.ip.addr. my.2nd.ip.addr is my mailserver's real IP address, but I can't get it to send from anything but my.1st.ip.addr. This seems like a common problem as most dedicated servers you get these days will come with 5 IPs so we run different services on each one. This seems like it would be a useful feature for QmailToaster.. or is there already a way to do it? Thanks
