Changed Public IP

I know, I know, Scalix hates having its IP changed.

I thought I could get away with it because the server lives behind a NAT router and its private IP hasn't changed.

However, because I had to change ISP's, the public IP has changed. Scalix seems to be mostly happy but I'm getting SSL/TLS errors in the sendmail log when trying to connect to secure email servers. See below

Code: Select all

Feb 27 18:13:05 renoir sendmail[25440]: STARTTLS=client, relay=dkcphmx20.softcom.dk., version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=FAIL, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256
Feb 27 18:15:16 renoir sendmail[25440]: STARTTLS: write error=syscall error (-1)
Feb 27 18:15:16 renoir last message repeated 9 times
Feb 27 18:15:16 renoir sendmail[25440]: STARTTLS: write error=generic SSL error (-1)
Feb 27 18:15:16 renoir sendmail[25440]: k1RHEm06022690: SYSERR(root): putbody: write error: Input/output error


I suppose it's possible I need to generate a new certificate with the new public IP, but this would surprise me becasue Scalix didn't know what its old public IP was. Then again it could be a reverse DNS thing (I haven't registered a PTR record with the new ISP yet.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Hi,

this has nothing to do with Scalix, really. You have a TLS problem on sendmail. Simply regenerate the certificate with your new hostname.
