Hi all, Some of you were kind enough to give this new-B some advice before regarding this issue, but I am a little baffled by something. I set up a mail server as a test server, and put it on it's own network. I then set up a router so that it can route to and from our prod net. I set up a DNS server on that router, and set things up appropriately DNS-wise for the appropriate domains. I am trying to send mail from this server to another server in our prod network. To do that you need the appropriate MX, PTR, and A records. So I ping the prod server from the test mail server by name, and it resolves, and responds. I do the following checks to be sure DNS is set up:
Nslookup >Set type=mx >domain.com It responds with the appropriate addressing. >Set type=PTR >xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa It responds with the appropriate server name. Yet when I connect to this test mail server from the prod server, it does not recognize it. I get a: (Name service error for name=mail.mailtest.com type=MX: Host not found, try again) Any ideas? BTW, the /etc/resolv.conf, and the /var/spool/postfix/etc/resolv.conf Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
