the macs are having problems at our company because they are using an old unix box as an smtp server for those people who don’t have exchange accounts or need to send mail, say from an earthlink acct.
anyway they are having problems because the smtp server keeps getting hung. can’t i just configure sendmail to be the smpt server on the master image thereby giving all the macs their own local smtp server or is it more complicated then that?
Would i need to do anything with the domain controller for the master network or forward/reverse/hosts file on the particular mac?
And if it’s possible is there a step by step to setup a simple smtp server?
the main thing is…it doesn’t need to recieve mail only send it out.
