I have a BSD server set up as a web proxy and mail server connected to the internet via a ppp dialup. The problem is that I can send mail from the server directly, but can't send mail from any client machines on the LAN. The error I get with sendmail is as follows: Aug 10 17:39:57 bsd sendmail[19095]: RAA19095: SYSERR: putoutmsg ([192.168.100.180]): error on output channel sending "250 ...Sender ok": Broken pipe Aug 10 17:39:57 bsd sendmail[19095]: RAA19095: lost input channel from [192.168.100.180] The client machine IP is 192.168.100.180, the server IP (configured in the mail client) is 192.168.100.11 Mail can be delivered to the client machines via the POP server without problems. Do the client machines need to have DNS entries or is there some other problem? cheers, Carey Nairn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
