Unfortunately for me, the email server has only one interface address that is used by both public and local users. So, the 'bind' directive would require significant reconfiguration of things. What I was trying to accomplish by sharing the same port between to address ranges was to be able to assign particular environmental variables to each address range. Setting the 'RELAYCLIENT' variable for the local address range enabled relaying for the local users with Qmail's SMTP daemon. Not setting it blocked relaying for public users. I wish there was some way to do this using only xinetd, rather than having to install and use the tcpd server. It seems a shame to have to cascade these two just to conditionally set some environmental variables. Yuck. Oh well. Thanks for you help! -Tony On Monday 11 August 2003 2:47 pm, Rob Braun wrote: > Nope, that is not the intended mode of operation. > You should probably be using the 'bind' directive instead of > the only_from and no_access directives. > > Rob >
