server (Imail) uses a public address and will be behind the proxy. The helpful chap at RM said "you want reverse hosting on your squid box" - cant find anything about it.
I'm not 100% sure, but I think this isn't anything connected to squid. It sounds more like some sort of policy needs configuring on the router, assuming that you want the email server to be accessible from outside. Most likely this is done using iptables if the router uses GNU/Linux, but without knowing specifics it's hard to give useful advice. At the very least, the email server should not be left on the same network as the "private" systems. Putting the proxy "in series" with the router seems odd, but you may have your reasons. Normally, I would put the web proxy and mail server in one network, the private machines in another and configure the router accordingly. I'm not sure whether running an SMTP gateway on the proxy is a good idea. Be aware of the increased security risk, but presumably it is monitored very closely already, so it might be the best bet. -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know. http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ jabber://slef@jabber.at Creative copyleft computing services via http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ Thought: "Changeset algebra is really difficult."
