Postfix Query
by Rony 09 Jun '11

09 Jun '11

Hello, I have been going through various docs on the net about sasl authentication in postfix. In the system that I have set up at a client's place, mails are going fine but there is a small issue that needs to be corrected. The setup is a group of machines on LAN running Outlook Express mail clients and a Linux box running postfix pushing all mails to the main ISP's smtp server. Since It is a relay server, I have used the parameter relayhost = [smtp_of_ISP]:25 in the main.cf file. The sasl auth is using smtp_auth_enable and not smtpd_auth_enable and the user names/passwords are listed in the /etc/postfix/sasl_password file. The only *smtpd* related entry is smtpd_recipient_restrictions = check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/recipient_access, reject. Mails are going as required and only to those in the recipient_access list as required. Now if an employee has left and his/her entries are removed from the postfix box as well as the ISP server mail accounts, the Outlook Express mailer can still send mails as that non-existent user. What I found through more reading of docs is that my OE accounts can send mails even without authentication as I don't have smtpd_auth_enable and the LAN is in my mynetworks parameter. Not a big problem as it is local and under control and the OE account can be deleted for that user. However, why is the ISP allowing this unknown user which postfix is relaying when I have everything set in the smtp_auth_ part of postfix? Suppose there is a flaw in my settings, shouldn't the ISP's mail server reject those mails when the username and password do not match with their list? That user has been deleted from their server. -- Freedom is a shared resource. Take some, leave the rest for others. Please trim your replies. Avoid cross posting to other lists.

Linux 3.0
by jtd＠mtnl.net.in 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

Linux 3.0 on AMD Hudson (Gigabyte E350N-USB3). Had a major struggle getting 5.1 sound going - all kernels between 2.6.32 and 2.6.39 have a problem with ALC892 (something to do with 64bit DMA). The display would not work at all and I had to ssh to get to the machine. Careful inspection of syslog showed a missing radeon binary firmware blob - !@#$ piece of shit I HATE BLOBS - getting it from sid repo solved the problem. Not much info on this board, it being very new even abroad. I am pleasantly surprised at this board being available a month ago. I decided to purchase this one because coreboot was being ported and presumed there would be no problems, since it's a lot harder to run linux in bios than as a regular kernel. Now to test 1080P.
