Did you use the Matt's patch for MySQL? You should consider that if you are using MySQL with vpopmail for relay. Here is mine :
server localhost port 3306 database vpopmail or whatever database..... table relay user vpopmail or whatever username pass your password heree time 1800 Have a good one, Remo Mattei Network Security Engineer Cell 801-209-8554 Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 3:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [vchkpw] path / tcp-smtp / relay Hello List, I installed qmail and vpopmail and my relaying does not work correctly. When i get mails via POP, my "tcp.smtp.cdb" file is been regenerated and is containing the correct IPs. The IPs wich shall be open for relay until clearopensmtp removes the entries a while later ... So, all is functional here. "tcp.smtp.cdb" is updated .. But it seems that qmail ONLY looks into it´s "rcpthosts" file and NOT into the tcp.smtp.cdb ... My qmail-smtpd startup is like exec /usr/bin/softlimit -m 8000000 \ /usr/bin/tcpserver -c512 -H -R -v -x/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \ -u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp \ rblsmtpd /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 And as i said, all "seems" to work fine. The tcp.smtp.cdb file is been regenerated when i authenticated via pop and also the clearopensmtp works (removal of the IPs). I use mysql so i can see the ips "twice", first in the mysql tabe and second in the tcp.smtp.cdb. i chmodded tcp.smtp* to 777, too but it is still not working. Help needed because now my machine is open for relay... Why does my qmail seems not to be reading the tcp.smtp.cdb ?! Any path setting missing or shall i symlink something ? When i chmod the tcp.smtp.cdb file that only root can read it, i get no errormessage in the qmail-smtp log. so there must be something wrong, or not ?
