Can't get SMTPS working

Postby WizmanG » Tue Aug 22, 2006 6:59 pm

I followed the instructions on configuring multiple IPs on the same NIC for SSMTP but still can't get it working. I do have IMAPS and POP3S working.

Any help is appretiated.

When I try and connect I get the cert and I am prompted for my password but I never get authenticated.

Here are some bits from /var/log/messages that I think are relevant.

Aug 22 18:10:37 scalix pam_timestamp_check: pam_timestamp: `/var/run/' owner GID != 0
Aug 22 18:10:42 scalix pam_timestamp_check: pam_timestamp: `/var/run/' owner GID != 0
Aug 22 18:10:47 scalix pam_timestamp_check: pam_timestamp: `/var/run/' owner GID != 0
Aug 22 18:10:49 scalix sendmail[4310]: unable to open Berkeley db /etc/sasldb2: No such file or directory
Aug 22 18:10:49 scalix sendmail[4310]: unable to open Berkeley db /etc/sasldb2: No such file or directory
Aug 22 18:10:49 scalix sendmail[4310]: no secret in database
Aug 22 18:10:52 scalix pam_timestamp_check: pam_timestamp: `/var/run/' owner GID != 0


here are the relevant bits from my stunnel.conf

[pop3s]
accept = 995
connect = 110

[imaps]
accept = 993
connect = 143

[ssmtp]
accept = 192.168.10.205:465
connect = 25

It's all relative.....

The log extracts that you've posted are not relevant to SMTPs or Scalix, they should be ignored.

The first thing to do is to enable SMTP Relay logging in /var/opt/scalix/sys/smtpd.cfg by adding DEBUG_LOG=TRUE and restarting the SMTP Relay.

This will create a file called /var/opt/scalix/tmp/smtpd.log and will log the entire SMTP conversation when your client attempts to authenticate.

Please capture that logging and post it here.

Cheers

Dave

I enabled loggin and it looks like it isn't even trying to authenticate to the scalix server and it isn't logging anything to the smtp.log file.

I am getting these entries in the /var/log/messages file that leads me to beleive that something isn't correct with the configuration and it might be trying to authenticate to the local machine somehow.
