Hey all. I've set up my system to receive email, and according to
/var/log/maillog and my local 'mail' (from the command prompt), it's
receiving it just find. However, when I try to access my server
remotely, my mail program says that there was a POP3 error and that I
should contact my system admin.
My server is behind a firewall, and I've opened ports 109 (pop2 - both
TCP and UDP) and 110 (pop3 - both TCP and UDP) to point to 192.168.1.10,
which is assigned to the network card receiving outside connections
(i.e., http, etc.). I've also uncommented the appropriate lines in my
/etc/inetd.conf and restarted inet. However,
netstat -apn | grep 109
returns
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:109 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 8879/inetd
and
netstat -apn | grep 110
returns
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:110 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 8879/inetd
and this would seem to indicate that although it's listening to the
correct port, it's not looking to the correct IP address. Right? If so,
how do I get it to listen to 192.168.1.10?
I've looked through various log files, but I can't find anything which
would indicate what the POP3 error might be (which would be correct since
it's looking to 0.0.0.0:109 and 0.0.0.0:110 rather than 192.168.1.10).
Can anyone point me to where I should be looking to get this bound to the
correct IP address?
Thanks!
