client connects to smtp but then just sits there for 30 minutes

[1810h]

I have qmail installed on fedora core 1. Everything has been installed according to life with qmail. I can receive e-mail with no problems. When I go to send e-mail from my client it says that it's connecting and then just sits there. I've had it sit there for what it seemed to be about 30 minutes. I've had qmail installed and running flawlessly on qmail several times but this is my first time on fedora.

I've checked with netstat -n and it shows that it's listening on port 25.
I have use telnet and this is what it says after I do a telnet domain.com 25
Trying ip address...
Connected to domain.com.
Escape character is '^]'.


This doesn't even respond to smtp commands.

I can however "successfully" send e-mail from my server locally using echo to: name@domain.com | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject.

Iptables has been shut off as well.

I have setup tcp.smtp.cdb as well with the correct configuration for relaying.

All the processes are running:

864 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-send
865 ? S 0:00 supervise log
866 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-smtpd
867 ? S 0:00 supervise log
868 ? S 0:00 supervise qmail-pop3d
869 ? S 0:00 supervise log
870 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail/pop3d

872 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -H -P -R -l mail.comain.com -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c -u 502 -g 501
873 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/multilog t /var/log/qmail/smtpd
874 ? S 0:00 /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l 0 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.domain.com /bin/ch 875 ? S 0:00 qmail-send
876 ? S 0:00 qmail-lspawn ./Maildir/
877 ? S 0:00 qmail-rspawn
878 ? S 0:00 qmail-clean


As of right now I am at a loss until I can figure out this smtp problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

did you cut and paste the output of ps or did you retype. One of your tcpserver lines states mail.comain.com instead of mail.domain.com.

If you modified it then it's hard to help you without looking at the unedited output.

could also be a DNS issue as this usually results in slow smtp.

hello nedmega,

I cut and pasted the ps output but I edited the domains. This is an in house test server that I am playing with to see how qmail works with fedora core 1. I've installed qmail flawlessly several times on FreeBSD but never tried on fedora core 1 before.

I'm sure my DNS is working properly. I can resolve the test domain with dig, nslookup, ping. I've just never ran into this problem with qmail before.

Thanks

This issue has been resolved. There was a typo in my qmail-smtpd/run.

Thanks
