    • RE: Mail SMTP Relay - Reverse DNS Question

      @Sparkum Ok, so you are wanting mail-store1 to store your messages when your mail server is down, then relay them once the mail server is back up.

    • RE: Mail SMTP Relay - Reverse DNS Question

      @Sparkum I'm still having trouble figuring out what your end goal is. Can you clarify what mail.domain.ca and mail-store1.domain.ca are doing? What you are wanting them to do?

      I might not have followed this correctly but... PTR (Reverse DNS) records have to be done at the IP Address point, not with your DNS provider. Whoever does your A and MX records can't be the company with the PTR record. Your ISP has to do the PTR record. The ISP at which your MX record points.

      It is a hosted server, so the host should be the one making sure it is correct.

      So my question is can I only have reverse DNS on mail.domain or could I have it on mail-store1.domain and if so is there something more I need to do than an A record and a MX record

      PTR records are on IP addresses, not on domains. What would a reverse DNS record on a domain even mean?

      PTR records on IP Addresses is what he means.

    • RE: Mail SMTP Relay - Reverse DNS Question

      @Sparkum Its a reverse DNS issue then. The reverse record should point to the dns name in the EHLO response. Most providers don't give you tools to change reverse dns, they have to do it.

      @Sparkum Where is the mail being dropped, incoming to your server, or outgoing to other people's servers?

      Verizon requires a SIM for any LTE device. The older CDMA didn't use SIM cards.

      I would think Federation would be the preferred way, but i haven't researched it enough to know for sure.

      In a case where people put a DC license on every box, what are the VL benefits?

      The only one I can think of is the ability to move it to new hardware. But seriously, if you have DC on all the hardware and one completely dies and cannot be part swapped to recover, then just buy another copy of DC. Generally you will never need worry about it until you get new hardware in 5+ years.

      Downgrade rights is the only other benefit I can think of.

    • RE: Up to $400 off Microsoft Windows Server Datacenter 2012 R2 at NewEgg

      I can see a case for DC OEM, the price difference between OEM and VL is only $1300ish... prob not enough to justify losing the VL benefits.

    • RE: PERC 6/i Foreign configuration found on adaper

      @Dashrender Is the controller showing your current config on it? If not it most likely lost its config and is finding it on the disks and you will need to import.
