Sounds like you do not have a default gateway set, or your subnet mask is wrong.

I have a RedHat 6.2 Linux system that has been configured as a mail server for a real Internet domain. Users can receive their mails but nothing (mails) can be sent out. After a lot of troubleshooting I made out the following: 1. The system can't send mails out because you cannot initiate a telnet session from it to any other system on port 25 e.g., [root@mail itayemi]# telnet 10.0.4.4 25 Trying 10.0.4.4... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: No route to host This is the same message that keeps being written to the mail log (/var/log/maillog) by sendmail. Any ideas? You can telnet to it on port 25 from other systems. I have looked at all the common causes I can think of (DNS, inetd, routing, sendmail etc) Nothing seems to work. The system is not configured as a firewall and the port is not blocked by the router or any other device. Regards, Tunde I.
