Hoping some sendmail buff here may give me a brief tutorial as to how to
set my local sendmail up in order to relay mail from other machines on
my home lan.
I have a 7.0 box IP-masquerading two other boxes. The Masquerade is
in working order and all can access the internet.
I have sendmail running on the Masquerade box, and have used sendmail
for several years, but always as MTA on a stand alone single user
machine. Where the most I had to do was setup Envelope masqueride, or
generic tables. And m4 a new `*.mc' file.
Seems I only need to tell sendmail to accept the addresses in the two
and from fields, comming from the other machines. But not sure where
or how to do that.
Just as a test, I set a mail client on one of the other network
machines to point to port 25 on the gateway machine as its smtp
server. The gateway machine refuses to relay anything that isn't
addressed to users on it. No surprise there. But how to get around
that?
In summary: These are home machines with no `real' IP address, accept
the one alocated at dialup time.
The setup is a 7.0 box set up as gateway (currently via ppp but soon to
be DSL). I want Two other machines in the household to send there mail
through this box. No need to recieve mail that way as the mail
accounts can recieve from there respective pop servers, over the
gateway.
So its really the IPs smtp server I need to access but I want the
gateway box to do the accessing through its local sendmail and relay
the mail from the other two.
