smtpd on two ports
|
|
|
I need to have qmail SMTPD listen on two ports, and from searching the
archives
I found out I can add run another SMTPD service by adding the following
to
/service/qmail-smtpd-priv/run
however, where in the run script do I specify the port #, and do I also
need
to run a another instance of /service/qmail-smtpd-priv//log/run?
Thanks for your help
Regards,
Michael |

tcpserver takes the port as the second non-option argument, i.e. it's:

Yes. Each service, if you want logging, requires a separate logging
subservice. If you're logging through multilog, you'll need a new log output
directory as well.

You can consult djb's page for tcpserver about this:

I have just finished reading DJB's tcpserver doc and I can not find the
switch for specifying the port#. Apparently I am missing something.
Which option specifies the port#?
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \ |

It isn't a switch. It's the second non-option argument to tcpserver, just as
I said above. In the usage line above, replace "port" with the port number
you want it to listen on, just as you replace "program ..." with the program
you want tcpserver to run for each connection.

I am sorry to bother the list with something so trivial, however, I just
cannot figure out where to place the port number.
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1
I am assuming it goes after the /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l
"$LOCAL" "2525"
However when I restart qmail smtpd it fails to start.
Could you be more specific?
Thanks in advance. |

The word smtp in the above entry is actually the port. tcpserver
looks in /etc/services for the port value of smtp and replaces it
behind the scenes.
SO.. if you put 2525 in place of smtp, you can use smtp on port 2525.

After creating additional instance of smtpd with the following
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd-log/run
and linking it to service
I got the following error after restarting qmail.
2005-02-01 15:40:20.593480500 tcpserver: fatal: unable to bind: address
already used.
Is their anything else that needs to be done to have qmail-smtpd listen
on two ports?

Sounds like whatever port you specified is already in use by something
else. Try this :
netstat -anp --inet | grep <portnum>
That should tell you what process has that port open.

Ok now I have created another instance of qmail-smtpd
doing the following
\var\qmail\supervise\qmail-smtpd-priv-run
and linking it to supervise using the follow parameters
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.96.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1
However when I run
netstat -anp --inet | grep 96
it shows no services listening. Am I missing something? |

You still have smtp listed.. OH.. heh.. not /etc/tcp.96.cdb ..
after the NOFILESGID is a 0, then the word smtp .. replace *THAT*
word with 96.. so you have this :
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 96 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1
If you want to use a different tcpserver database for this new port,
then you can build that and put it's name in place of tcp.smtp.cdb
(note, the above command will probably wrap in email)

Ok I have it correct config now, however, there is still no service
running port 96
This is what I have configured so far
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run (on port 25)
and
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd-priv/run (on port 96)
linked to /service
here is my /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd-priv/run
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c
"$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 96 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
2>&1
netstat -anp --inet | grep 96
returns nothing?
What else could be missing? |

Do you have logging running for this private qmail instance? Are
there any errors in there?
