I have just put 8.2 on a Dell Optiplex. Finally got two NICs running having had to disable internal one. Created a user account with password. Set up Samba. Can connect from w2k box to samba shares but pop3 and smtp from Pegasus just won't connect. /var/log/messages shows the pop3 service responding but it keeps saying Logout user=???. Postfix claims to be running (tried a start and it complained it was there) On smtp the pegasus just says it cannot connect. I had got used to sendmail
Wont connect to what? The pop server on the windows box your trying to connect to over samba??? I am going to guess that you mean you can not connect to your internet SMTP server. Can you access web pages? Can you ping the SMTP server? Have you set up your default gateway? -----Original Message----- From: rhemingway@qvnetwork.co.uk [mailto:rhemingway@qvnetwork.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 10:32 AM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: [SLE] Connecting to pop3 and postfix I have just put 8.2 on a Dell Optiplex.

Which pop3-server have you installed?

Try : # postconf inet_interfaces If it is "127.0.0.1" or localhost go to /etc/sysconfig/mail, set SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE to "yes" and run SuSEconfig or try to use yast to set this option, but i don't know where it is. If it is "all" or includes your ip, seen from your client, check for a firewall and send some logs from /var/log/mail.
