Hello Mark, No problems but as you mentioned may be as this is a redhat-list, we may have been slightly off-topic.
Just you will need to review your firewall logs (after enabling logging at rule) and see what happens when connection is refused. You may also search/post to the IpTables mailing list: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=netfilter and also check this link about Iptables: http://www.linuxguruz.org/iptables Regards, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Drozd, Mark" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2003 22:56 Subject: RE: Sendmail problem > What you have stated is correct. > > I have tried putting in the linux ip[ address and receive an error.
