Listening on all interfaces
=== Listening on all interfaces ===
Our first editing change We need to configure the Postfix configuration will be MTA not only to make listen to connections from other (separate) MTAs, but to set the domain name and server name in order to allow the user to issue emails in the service "listenstandard way" , and allow mail messages to provide a correct email address for incoming connections on the external interface (i.e '''eth0''' from the VMs point of view)replies.
'''Perform the following steps:'''
# Launch in editing session for the postfix configuration file called: '''/etc/postfix/main.cf'''
# Our first editing change to the Postfix configuration will be to make the service "listen" for incoming connections on the external interface (i.e '''eth0''' from the VMs point of view).<br>Change the value of the following parameter to what is displayed below:<br><source lang="bash">inet_interfaces = all</source>
# We should also set the string that will end up in the '''From:''' header in messages sent by this server.<br>Change the '''mydomain''' option to YOUR domain name (shown below):<source lang="bash">mydomain = yoursenecaid.org</source>
# Also you must set the '''hostname''' for this server so that will correctly specify the hostname in the '''From:''' head in a sent mail message.<br>Make certain the following parameter only appears once (shown below):<source lang="bash">myorigin = $myhostname</source>
'''Record steps, commands, and your observations in INVESTIGATION 2 in your OPS335 lab log-book'''
