I have 4 Tw systems network locally and have main problems. Two, both desktops can send main to the network server, a fifth machine running openSUSE 13.1. The other two, both laptops (Tw) create "lost connection after EHLO from unknown" errors in /var/log/mail. With the exception of host names, <host-name>.wahoo.no-ip.org, all four /etc/postfix/maincf's are identical, and the problem is not firewall related as I tried with the firewall off getting the same error.

I see nothing that helps on google and have lost myself in the postfix documentation.

Does anyone have suggestion I can try?

tks,

ps: mostly just wanting to collect system logs in one place (mail). Also noticed that logrotate and logdigest were not installed nor are they when rsyslog is installed, nor is logrotate initiated on rsyslog install.

journalctl is nice and not unhandy but a bear for any system with any amount of life-time. My i7 with ssd disks and raid 0 take FOREVER to parse thru any lengthy records. Not Good!

Solved: Ended up being an extra $mydomain in the "mydestination" line of /etc/postfix/main.cf. Go figger, and *difficult* to find :^(.

If you think that is hard to find try looking for "extra" white space at the end of a line in a config file. New job, first time working with SCO and the box had an issue auto-mounting an nfs filesystem. After two months I stumbled accross the extra spaces, removed them all was well afterward. Sure made the boss and the admin of the Novell box happy. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I've always appreciated editors that have an option to show white-space "characters". Its amazing to me that Kate does not support this, given that there are more than a few situations where white space matters in the linux world. I've been known to open such files with LibreOffice just to click on the Paragraph button which turns on white-space marks. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

But that the parser of the config file, knowing how difficult is to find white space at the end of the line, has problems, may be also a bug.

On some editors you can see them by selecting several lines. They highlight till the actual endofline char, but others highlight the entire line (like kate), so they are not useful for this.

I files a bug report (wishlist item) on Kate. Pointed them at LibreOffice where they can steal the code. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=342811 If its like any of my other bug reports, it will get closed as obsolete with no action. - -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlS1uHEACgkQv7M3G5+2DLIXqgCeJ26Yywu/X9j3/NplUAC75niG W80AnjJGNV4va2fUN/i94nMbPW+UsIJP =ino5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
