Hello, I have a quick question for you ipfw/firewall experts out there. I've have set up an elaborate firewall only to have trouble with Sendmail. I have opened port 25 incoming, and also allow outgoing to another port 25, but I always find stuck mail when I use "mailq". Using tcpdump -- and no firewall -- I've found that between the dns lookups and smtp connections there are in fact some auth lookups too. I opened incoming port 113 and outgoing to 113 but I still have stuck mail! Any help would be greately appreciated, many thanks in advance! -Sereciya Kurdistani PS My basic rules look like: ipfw add NNNN allow \{ tcp or udp \} from any to any smtp,smtps out ipfw add NNNN allow \{ tcp \} log from any to any smtp,smtps in ipfw add NNNN allow \{ tcp or udp \} from any to any auth out ipfw add NNNN allow \{ tcp \} log from any to any auth in and yes, this is ipfw2 on 4.8-STABLE
