Excellent, though I assume you meant -L25:my.smarthost.org:25 there. For the benefit of googlers, here's the solution I arrived at. I created a user called smtp-tunnel on the smarthost, and gave root on the client machines rights to log into that machine with a key. Then I run sudo autossh -f -N -L 25:nuala.thaning.se:25 [EMAIL PROTECTED] After that, I just 'dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config' to have it use nuala.thaning.se as a smarthost. Lots of thanks for the hint. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
