I have a little problem... I'd like to receive mail in this way : user@scotty.masternet.it (the name of the server) and/or user@masternet.it (the domain name) but I'd like it'll be sent out as user@scotty.masternet.it _only_. Now is it possible to do it without telling all the users to change their config from user@masternet.it to user@scotty.masternet.it ? Here is part of my dns cfg. --- cut ---- IN MX 10 scotty.masternet.it. masternet.it. IN MX 10 scotty.masternet.it. ; nt IN MX 10 scotty.masternet.it. ; ;masternet.it and nt.masternet.it are definined in the file sendmail.cw too ; ;********* Hosts Address ******** ; localhost.masternet.it. IN A 127.0.0.1 rib.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.1 ; Router INTERBUSINESS masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.2 ; masternet.it scotty.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.2 ; scotty.masternet.it spock.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.3 ; Macchina appoggio hb1.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.5 ; HUB SNMP nt.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.50 ; Server www --- cut --- before it works if I use a config like this : localhost.masternet.it. IN A 127.0.0.1 rib.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.1 ; Router INTERBUSINESS scotty.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.2 ; scotty.masternet.it spock.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.3 ; Macchina appoggio hb1.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.5 ; HUB SNMP nt.masternet.it. IN A 194.184.65.50 ; Server www masternet.it. IN CNAME scotty.masternet.it. without the mx lines. --- cut --- But in this second way I create a lot of troubles to other dns above us. So any hints ? In the ORA DNS & bind it is said this is the way to do this things (see example movie.edu :-) but it is not said it is the only one... :-) Thanks for attention...
