Re: Need Help with Squirrelmail

[Marcio A. Regalado]

Hello List

telnet to localhost 25 & 110 work fine
telnet to publimotion.com.mx Times Out

I had bought this domain name and have no-ip redirecting all the 
requests to www.publimotion.com.mx
mail.publimotion.com.mx
ftp.publimotion.com.mx
to my server 'cause I have a dynamic IP address and it should be 
working, actually www.publimotion.com.mx works well but not mail nor 
ftp, right now I'm resolving the mail isue and after I'll work on the 
ftp isue

thanx Marcio

DNS requests are working?

What returns: #host publimotion.com.mx

I see: # host publimotion.com.mx
publimotion.com.mx has address 8.4.112.98

And publimotion.com.mx  has no MX (mail exchange) records to
mail.publimotion.com.mx

Is your server behind a NAT firewall...  If so, the request for
publimotion.com.mx will be resolving to your external IP address which,
for requests that originate from the internal network, invariably end up
with your firewall trying to deal with it.

A quick solution would be to add an entry to your hosts file that makes
publimotion.com.mx reference 127.0.0.1.  Alternatively, if you have
other machines running on the network that need to access the server you
will need to set up a DNS server on the network which has the internal
network IP addresses for all internal services, and then make all
internal machines use that DNS server.

Here's the relevant extracts from my config files:

/etc/named.conf
[...]
zone "pythagoras.no-ip.org" {
        type master;
        file "pythagoras_no-ip_org.db";
        allow-update { localhost; };
};

zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "rev.pythagoras_no-ip_org.db";
        allow-update { localhost; };
};
[...]

/etc/dhcpd.conf
[...]
        option routers                  192.168.0.1;
[...]
        option domain-name-servers      192.168.0.2;

Alternatively, I suppose that you could just make everything on your
server reference localhost - but that looks unprofessional in my opinion.

IMAP, which Squirrelmail uses to retrieve mail by default, uses port 
143, not 25 or 110.  You may want to see if your IMAP server is 
running via the telnet method as well as smtp (25) and pop (110).

20:10:22 # cat /etc/services | grep -i imap
imap    143/tcp   imap2  # Interim Mail Access Proto v2
imap    143/udp   imap2
