I've just compiled and installed MMDF on a 386 machine running Lynx OS and need help in configuring the domain and channel tables (local and SMTP). How I would like to set things up is that any mail sent within the local domain be sent directly and any thing else to be sent to the gateway. If at all possible I would like to make use of our name server. Here is the pertinent networking info: host name: zaphod (132.246.192.19) domain name: iar.nrc.ca name server: nrcnet0.nrc.ca (132.246.160.2) gateway: naegate.nrc.ca (132.246.192.1) Currently I'm fooling around with the following configuration: mmdftailor file: ================ MLNAME "zaphod" MLDOMAIN "iar.nrc.ca" MLOCMACHINE "" MSUPPORT "postmaster@zaphod.iar.nrc.ca" ; Table entries MTBL alias, file="aliases", show="Local Aliases" MTBL local, file="local", show="Local Host" MTBL smtp, file="smtp", show="SMTP Hosts" MTBL rootdomain, file="rootdomain", show="Root Domain" ALIAS table=alias, trusted ; Channel entries MCHN local, show="Local Delivery", que=local, tbl=local, pgm=local, mod=imm, ap=same MCHN list, show="List Processing", que=list, tbl=local, pgm=list, mod=reg MCHN smtp, show="SMTP/TCP", que=smtp, tbl=smtp pgm=smtp, mod=reg, ap=822 ; Domain tables MDMN "root", dmn="", show="Root Domain", table=rootdomain ; Logging levels MMSGLOG level=FTR MCHANLOG level=FTR rootdomain file: ================ u614ji u614ji.iar.nrc.ca convax convax.iar.nrc.ca com naegate edu naegate ca naegate local table: ============ zaphod.iar.nrc.ca zaphod zaphod.nrc.ca zaphod zaphod zaphod smtp table: =========== naegate.nrc.ca 132.246.192.1 u614ji.iar.nrc.ca 132.246.192.17 convax.iar.nrc.ca 132.246.192.11 With the above configuration files I have been able to send mail locally and to u614ji (but not to u614ji.iar.nrc.ca). As far as receiving mail I am using smtpd.4.3.c with the apropriate line set in inetd.conf as follows: smtp stream tcp nowait root /usr/mmdf/chans/smtpd smtpd /usr/mmdf/chans/smtpsrvr smtp,local Judging from the messages in the log files submit doesn't like the return address specification. Which all seems to me to point to a domain configuration and or channel table specification. Is there someone who out there who could give me a few pointers as to how to properly configure this beast! signed ... thouroughly confused!! (aka: Matthew Bastian)
