DNS Setup - Hosting Website Internally - Email Externally
Jul 1, 2008
IIS 7.0 - I host several websites. On one of them, the email is hosted externally and not through my exchange server. I have added an MX record to point to the mail server for this domain, but I still get an error when I attempt to send an email from within my local area network. There are no problems with emails generated outside my network, but for emails generated to this domain from within my network, I get the following error:
The e-mail account does not exist at the organization this message was sent to. Check the e-mail address, or contact the recipient directly to find out the correct address.
<mail.<mydomain>.com #5.1.1>
Incidentally, the <mydomain> value does not match the domain for this email domain.
Instead it is the primary domain that I host.
I know that this must be a DNS issue, but I'm not sure how to correct.

I have a VPS with cPanel/WHM where I am also running the MailScanner package as an anti-virus/anti-spam solution.
I would like to extend this service to clients who are satisfied with their web and email hosting but not with their spam control solution. That is, I would like MailScanner to process their email before it reaches their server. I believe this can be done by changing the MX records of the external domains to point to the mail server on my VPS.
The problem is, I don't know if I should put host.myhostname.com (my VPS hostname) or my IP address in their MX records. Also, to make MailScanner process their emails, I need to add their domains to my MailScanner configuration at etc/localdomains, but I assume that also means I have to create a mail-only account for the domain in WHM?

We are moving our website to an in-house server that's going to be on the windows server 2003 OS. However, I am concerned that our current connection speed may not be enough to promptly serve our customers.
We currently have 10 megs download, 512k upload.
Our server is the following:
Quad-core Xeon at 1.8
4 gigs of ram
2x 15k rpm 160 gig hard drives in raid 1 configuration
Anyways, at any given time we may have up to 10 people on our website. Our pages average between 60KB and 120KB each.
Would this system and internet connection support our needs? Do we need to upgrade the internet connection? If so what would you recommend?

I've been setting up name server for my website. I'm using Centos 5, but never get it works.
Here what i have done so far:
yum install named
Then i create named.conf in /etc
PHP Code:
options { version "Version Secured"; directory "/var/named"; /* * If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source * directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged * port by default. */ // query-source address * port 53; recursion no;};logging { category lame-servers { null; };};//// a caching only nameserver config//controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndckey; };};zone "." IN { type hint; file "named.ca";};zone "localhost" IN { type master; file "localhost.zone"; allow-update { none; };};zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN { type master; file "named.local"; allow-update { none; };};include "/etc/rndc.key";zone "glueg99.com" { type master; file "/var/named/glueg99.com.db"; };
I created glueg99.com.db in /var/named
PHP Code:
$TTL 14400@ IN SOA ns1.glueg99.com. root.glueg99.com. ( 2007081300 14400 3600 1209600 86400 )glueg99.com. 14400 IN NS ns1.glueg99.com.ftp 14400 IN A 209.99.56.22localhost 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1mail 14400 IN A 209.99.56.22pop 14400 IN A 209.99.56.22glueg99.com. 14400 IN A 209.99.56.22www 14400 IN A 209.99.56.22glueg99.com. 14400 IN MX 10 mailglueg99.com. 14400 IN TXT "v=spf1 a mx ip4:209.99.56.22 ?all"
When i start 'named' (service named restart), it tells me these errors:
PHP Code:
[root@v named]# service named restartStopping named: [FAILED]Starting named:Error in named configuration:zone localhost/IN: loading master file localhost.zone: file not found_default/localhost/IN: file not foundzone 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loading master file named.local: file not found_default/0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: file not foundzone glueg99.com/IN: loaded serial 2007081300 [FAILED]
My website has been down and i am so frustrate about it. I don't like to use free NS from other sites, i'd rather set up my own NS.

Hotmail doesn't work. The email filtering technologies are still broken 18 months after the original problems were found with their implementation. And now it looks like they've stopped supporting it.
Seriously, does anyone know if the email filtering team at Microsoft has just given up on responding to requests and complaints? We've just deployed two new servers and both are blocked for delivering email to clients Hotmail/MSN/Live.com accounts.
The following steps have been taken:
1. Our DNS has been tested and checked using DNSstuff.com services.
2. Our server IP addresses checked to ensure they do not appear in any blacklists.
3. rDNS correctly setup for hostnames and mailserver names.
4. All our email is signed using DomainKeys.
5. All our domain names have published SPF records.
6. All our domain names have valid abuse@ and postmaster@ email addresses.
7. We have emailed senderid@microsoft.com notifying them as requested on postmaster.msn.com of our published SPF records.
8. We have even completed the senderid support form providing further notification here:
[url]
9. I have contacted the technical support team using the contact form on [url] witn absolutely no success.
Two weeks later I've made no progress whatsoever beyond receiving a request to complete a survey rating the non-existent support I have received. (No human has responded to any of my messages) And all our messages to Hotmail are still disappearing into the email filtering black-hole.
At this point I'm starting to wonder if Hotmail is even usable as an email service anymore. I doubt many people will be bothering to jump through all the hoops I am to resolve this issue. I dread to think how much legitimate email is getting caught up in the Microsoft email filtering black-hole - never providing any notification or information to senders their messages were not delivered.
Meanwhile, our email arrives perfectly in Yahoo/Gmail who both pass our SPF records and DomainKeys signatures. Oh, and we're not engaging in any email marketing practises (i.e. spam).

I want to setup a password for a website running on Ubuntu server, and find Apache can be used. It is implemented by config httpd.conf file and .htaccess file.
So I want to ask:
1. In this case, the password is setup for a path on the server configured in httpd.conf file. Like in the following example:
Code: <Directory "/var/www/html/MySite">
The password is setup for the path to Mysite,right?
2. If my content of website is not stored under /var/www folder, I cannot use this way to setup a password for website, right? May use PHP instead?

I don't know I was clearly enough in the title, the problem is that one of my clients has his own mailserver, I host only his website, and he uses a local server for emails.
For the rest of websites which are hosted on this server, everything is ok, intodns.com reports this message :
You have reverse (PTR) records for all your IPs, that is a good thing.
But for the website which has the mailserver on another server it fails the PTR test on intodns.com
ERROR: No reverse DNS (PTR) entries. The problem MX records are:
2.218.77.82.in-addr.arpa -> no reverse (PTR) detected
You should contact your ISP and ask him to add a PTR record for your ips
I have checked Tailor Made Servers control panel, and I have the option to set Reverse DNS for every IP alocated on my server, and for now all the websites (30) shares the same IP ..

I'm pretty new to Plesk and would like to setup a testing wordpress website without changing DNS yet. I assume I need to create a webspace for it. But do I use actual domain or an IP address? Wordpress ties up to the domain as far as I know.

I have a dedicated linux server that has 16 IP addresses... and one of those IP address is the main (or shared) IP of the server. So I can host a ton of websites on that one shared IP, and can optionally move individual accounts to one of the 15 other dedicated IP's if I so desire.
I put an account on it's own dedicated IP and it works fine. But I've noticed all my email being sent out is being filtered into people's spam folders... be it hotmail, gmail, yahoo, outlook, etc. My DNS is setup great as far as I can tell (DNSreport confirms) and I have SPF/domainkeys installed for this one account... so I shouldn't have problems authenticating my emails.
The only thing I can think of that would be causing problems for my mail being filtered as spam, is that since this account is on one of my dedicated IP's... that these mail providers (yahoo, etc) are looking at the incoming connection claiming to be the host, which is the main (or shared) IP of the server, and then looking at the MX record for the domain that the email address is, which points to that dedicated IP... and since they don't match... the email provider rejects the email cause the two IP's aren't matching.
Is this a valid assumption? And if so, is there anything I can do about it besides moving that one account back to the shared IP? For the life of me I can't figure this out.

Its been a while since I have posted on here, anyway heres my problem.
I have a cPanel server in my office which handles the email for 2 domains.
I've also got a reseller account on a helm server.
What I want to do is: if I have a problem with the office server (outage) all emails will be routed to the helm server then delivered back to the office server once available. So any incoming email wont be bounced/lost.

I have server A serving the website for my domain example.com and server B handling email for the same domain example.com.
Apart from one problem everything is working the way it should. The problem is that all email originating from server A (the one hosting the website) to someone@example.com is delivered locally (server A) and never gets out where it could be routed correctly to server B.
What needs to be done to deliver mail originating from server A to server B?

I have a VPS server now with 1and1.com (no wait times with tech support, and very friendly and helpful), only problem is... they haven't been able to help me resolve one of my problems.
My client has their domain registered with Network Solutions. I've already changed the DNS settings to point to my VPS where I've created the domain within Plesk. I can log into my FTP, change the site, yadda yadda yadda just like any other site. So everything works there!
Now, when I create an email account in Plesk I put in my user/pass etc... and create an email account... Great, awesome.
I go into Outlook and put in the email information, incoming/outgoing mail settings, user/pass, etc... and nothing works... It pops up and pretty much nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong for this to not work? Do I have to create a sub domain within Plesk for my domain? If so, I've already done that.
Must I change something over at Network Solutions to reflect the mail server? If so, I've added the MX records of mail.mydomain.com with prio of 10.
What is up? What am I doing wrong? :-(
Client is getting frustrated and I'm lost!
I'll keep everyone posted on the outcome :-)

I have a couple questions maybe some of you can help me with -
I have a dedicated server and many hosted customers, I want to setup SSL for IMAP email and their cpanels.
Instead of purchasing individual SSL certificates for each domain. I was thinking to just use my hostanme (eg host.myhostname.net) and direct them to that as I have seen the option in WHM.
My question is can I use an SSL cert for email that will act as a "fleetwide" SSL cert?
For example instead of using mail.theirdomain.com could I just use mail.myhostname.com and would it give them SSL without warnings? Of course they would set their email client to mail.myhostname.com..
Is it safe or recommend to use your hostname? I read somewhere to never use your hostname as a domain.. so not sure.

I basically bought a HPS Complete VPS hosting account with EuroVPS and i am having problems setting up an email client as no web mail client comes by default with that plan.
I asked the eurovps support team 2-3 times on how to set up MS Outlook as my email client for my domain and they answered the same thing and it's not working.
I was wondering,if anyone of you have HSP Complete VPS hosting account with euroVPS and is there anyway to have webmail.
As per there documentation,i am using the following:
username: user
email:user@mydomain.com
smtp&pop3: mail.mydomain.com
smtp port: 25
pop port: 110
Selected to use authentication for outgoing server and checked the option to use same authentication method as incoming server,
Deselected SPA authentication scheme
I did everything as per the documentation they sent me but it's not working,

We have a server where we host the sites and email services, and we are looking to buy a MS Exchange offsite email solution in order to have a reliable dedicated email service.
We are thinking on going with Rackspace MS Exchange solution:
http://www.rackspace.com/email_hosting/exchange_hosting
So now its the hard part, i run my own dns / nameservers at this server so if i just change the mx at my Plesk panel if my webserver goes offline my email will also stop working, correct?
And at my registrar i only can change the name of the nameservers and the ips... and also add more nameservers (im using 2 ns).
So i need to figure it out how to config/setup the rackspace email in a way that when my webserver goes offline my email can keep up working.
The rackspace support team, said to me that they can host/run my dns on their servers in order to have my email working if my webserver goes offline.
So what do you think? Its a goo idea? The only idea?
Or there are better ideas?
