I have no rules et up in IPTables, with Accept as the policy on all chains
(this machine is not yet reachable from the Internet...)
Nothing seems wrong in the logs... I can post them if you want...
As for the FQDN problem, I meant would it be a problem if the Postfix server
could not determine its own FQDN... I edited /etc/sysconfig.network, and now
hostname gives the FQDN, but still can't telnet to port 25...
Thanks!!
Doug
