Date: Thu, 21 Oct 1999 15:47:48 -0400 Organization: PlymoVent AB X-Mailer: Microsoft Internet E-mail/MAPI - 8.0.0.4211 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG We have 2 mailgateways that started to behave really strange today. Box1: FreeBSD 3.2-S (sendmail,qpopper,nat,ipfw) Box2: FreeBSD 3.3-S --- " --- The 2nd box is tracking stable as of today. First the second box (located in Sweden) started to behave funny, people in the private addressspace (internal side) couldn't fetch their mail. You could send and pop via the outside interface just fine (this box has been running fine for 6 months now). Then I decided to configure box no 2 not only to redirect mail to the MS exchange box but to have it behave just like the 1st box .. and gee, the same problems. The error I get from qpopper is: Oct 21 18:39:46 nexus popper[2787]: @[192.168.1.205]: -ERR POP EOF received every time somebody tries to fetch their mail, the important thing to remember here is that nothing has changed - I have punched myself bloody trying to figure out some reasonable explanation for this, but I think it has something to do with ipfw/nat since it clearly works OK via the outside interface. Sendmail gives these wondeful messages: Oct 21 17:50:47 nexus sendmail[2443]: NOQUEUE: Null connection from [192.168.1.22] Please help me out here to find a sollution - I am in the middle of replacing a MS Exchangeserver here when all of this happened (on two locations) .. I don't want FBSD getting a bad rep here, not since they were kind enough to allow me to shove the Exchange to the junkyard.
