Updating changed hostnames
*Start Firefox on your host and authenticate yourself on Senenet with your Seneca account.
*Ensure you can surf the web on your host machine. As your host should be using VM 1 as its DNS server, you will need to start it as well.
*Ensure you can access the web on your VM02 VM2 (you can use wget or lynx for that). NOTE: you should not have to authenticate yourself on the guest.
=== Reviewing the mail command ===
**Set the name of the server that handles outgoing mail:
#Edit /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
#Set the mailhub parameter to use your VM2 (do the same on your vm01 vm1 too). mailhub=vm02vm2.<yourdomain>.org
**Create the database file of mail aliases
*If you have problems with the following adjust your firewall to allow traffic to/from port 25.
**Also check your /var/log/maillog file to see the log entries that get created when mail is sent and received, and when something goes wrong.
*Try sending an email from vm02 vm2 to your vm03vm3.
mail -s "PART E2" yyyyyy@[192.168.X.4]
Note: yyyyyy is your Seneca ID<br />
Note: the square brackets around the host IP address
*Try sending an email from your vm03 vm3 to vm02vm2.
mail -s "PART E3" root@[192.168.X.3]
Now try sending mail to yourself on both machines. For example, as <senecaID> on VM 3, use the command:
$ mail <senecaID>@vm02vm2
the machine will prompt for a subject: enter "testing" without the quotes.
