Hey all!
I've got a problem. I am trying to set up a mail server. Simple huh. I
think so, but I want to make sure.
Domain: Andigilog.com -> Earthlink does our DNS for us.
Current Mail Situation: Earthlink is doing mail for us. I want to take
that over, since it's "so easy" and I think I can handle it.
Our Stuff:
Gateway / DNS / MailServer IP: 216.160.204.35 - Static IP (owned by uswest
- NOT dedicated for DNS purposes)
What I want is for qmail to be able to use my DNS for email. I want to
provide DNS services for my company. I eventually want to provide DNS
services for andigilog.com, but not yet. I will get earthlink to place the
following line in thier DNS tables.
$ORIGIN andigilog.com.
@ MX 5 jdsl35.phnx.uswest.net.
OK, since I am new the DNS thing here is my files. Please don't flame me
too bad! I did manage to get this into a chrooted environment, so I'm not
that stupid;) I guess my confusion is who am I? andigilog.com or
jdsl35.phnx.uswest.net? Can someone clear this up for me? If you fix my
mistakes, please let me know why -> thanks so much
Later
