Re: Witango-Talk: server ip address

Bill,

I think your problem is a linux config one, not Witango. perhaps you need to update your hosts file or whatever it is that would cause it to report itself as the server name "bart" "lisa" or whatever cartoon character it's named after to the server instead of 127.0.0.1

I'm going to run a couple quick tests on my linux witango box and I'll let you know how mine is setup and if it's reporting itself as 127.0.0.1 too.

Currently though I have no problems sending mail from my linux witango box.

This error will be reported once every 15 minutes.

Requests give a client plug-in error.

Now there are unused stanzas in clients.ini (wapache.so and wcgi.exe) that still refer to local host. Maybe these need to be removed?
This is not the case on Windows, and I have a very similar setup.
Changing the client shouldn't impact you in anyway, however I'm not sure
it will fix your problem, worth a shot though. You might want to try
setting the LISTENERADDRESS= and make sure that MAILADMIN= &
MAILDEFAULTFROM= are set to something (and not something that may
resolve to 127.0.0.1)

MAILSERVER=x.x.x.254

I can tail the mail server to see the incoming SMTP transaction. It announces an incoming connection from x.x.x.240 claiming to be 127.0.0.1. The mail server doesn't allow someone else to claim to be localhost.
What is the MAILSERVER= set as in the witango.ini or what ever it is
called in the linux world ;-)

My SMTP server @ xxx.254 is rejecting mail sent from my witango server
@

xxx.240, because the witango server announces itself as 127.0.0.1.

This
address is not acceptable to the black hole list (sbl.spamhaus.org).

Can I just modify the clients.ini so that the stanza reads:
[wapache2.so]
ERROR_HTML=/usr/local/witango/MiscFiles/clienterror.html
REPORTCLIENTERROR=TRUE
WITANGO_SERVER=WAS1,x.x.x.240,18100
Are there any other implications?

BTW, Redhat 9, Apache2, Witango 065
