Mail + Dyn. DNS problems
« on: February 06, 2001, 01:09:31 AM »
Hello,

I am using the 4.1 Beta 4 version. I have a DSL line directly connected to the eth1 interface, and i use the the server&gateway dedicated option with pppoe

I use a domain name from dyndns.org like "name.ath.cx"

Sending an receiving mail internally is ok.
Sending mail on the internet is ok.
I cannot receive mail from any email addresses on the Internet.

The web server is working good with "name.ath.cx" from the internet.

Here is some nslookup sample

[root@betsy /]nslookup -query=mx name.ath.cx

Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

zenix.ath.cx
        origin = betsy.name.ath.cx
        mail addr = admin.name.ath.cx
        serial = 2001020500
        refresh = 28800 (8H)
        retry   = 14400 (4H)
        expire  = 3600000 (5w6d16h)
        minimum ttl = 86400 (1D)

[root@betsy /]nslookup name.ath.cx
Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

*** localhost can't find name.ath.cx: Non-existent host/domain

[root@betsy /]nslookup -query=mx e-smith.name.ath.cx

Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

e-smith.zenix.ath.cx    preference = 5, mail exchanger = mail.zenix.ath.cx
zenix.ath.cx    nameserver = betsy.zenix.ath.cx
mail.zenix.ath.cx       internet address = 192.168.0.5
betsy.zenix.ath.cx      internet address = 192.168.0.5

This is the only server on the LAN (it's a test), internet access is ok.
Where did i make a mistake ?
