I have a system running sendmail that is behind a firewall (private
network). On the outside of the firewall is our mail server. I have
already configured the firewall to accept mail and relay it to the mail
server where it can be sent to the outside world; I have verified this
works by telneting (from the intenral system) to the firewall on port 25
and manually sending a message.
The problem is that sendmail doesn't seem to be forwarding the mail to
the fierwall properly.
In the sendmail.cf file there is the line DSfirewall (firewall is
defined in the /etc/host file as the firewalls internal IP address)
If I try to manually send a message and watch what it is doing (ex:
sendmail -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null) the system just sits
there doing nothing.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
