Hi Al,

that seems to be right on the mark. I defnitly check it out!!!!!

Thanks a lot, maybe something LogSat should include in their Documentation or link to.

Not sure if this will help, but we had the same issue. See:

No Problem Sean,

thanks for the hints. If I get that to fly properly, I let you know. Just hate to use different ports, but if the two physical cards do the trick, then that will work for me, assuming NAT isn't screaming at me. Since I run a Wireless LAN as well I wouldn't want to spend all weekend to get this fancyed out. I have W2K Server, Exchange 2000, IIS and a few other things running on that Server and changing all this wouldn't be what I consider weekend fun.

Don't call me un-romantic, I have been in IT for about 15 years and had enough weekends working :)

I final thought, go for 2 public IPs, one for each Local IP, using the Spamfilter IP as primary in MX, Exchange as Secondary, then in the SpamfilterISP config, use the local IP to pass from SpamfilterISP to exchagne. Actually, i think thats what the Tech Document states. Also, I'm assuming exchange is SMTP Server on Win2000, We are using Exchange 5.5 here, and the port config is simple. I'm anxious to see if you get all running right. I should also appologize for my confusion. ]]> Tue, 25 Nov 2003 18:33:00 +0000 https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=2479&PID=2488&title=spamfilter-and-exchange-on-one-server#2488 <![CDATA[SpamFilter and Exchange on one Server? : And as to the Document, this describes...]]> https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=2479&PID=2487&title=spamfilter-and-exchange-on-one-server#2487 Author: Guests

And as to the Document, this describes more the DSN and that isn't where the problem truly is.

Thanks Sean,

I will read through it. Reason for two (actually more IP's) on one Ethernet is that I use this Card for WAN access as I have NAT enabled on the other for LAN, still I do remember having this given a shot some time ago, but the result was the same. Though I wouldn't bet any money on the correct configuration back when. Maybe I assign another public IP to my LAN, do a bit of rewiring and give that a shot, just to be sure, but I doubt that will make much of a difference.

Your are correct on the MX port config thing, did you read through the tech document yet that Roberto has put together?

Also, Why not drop in an addition Ethernet card? insted of fooling with mult IPs on a single card. This would help incase one card fails too.

Sean,

I was refering to the SpamFilter or Exchange Server failing, not the physical machine. There I agree it would be useless. I currently have SpamFilter running on a seperate machine and it is the main MX eMail receiver and Exchange the fallback MX. Still, I would much like to consolidate both onto one machine with fallback option and since I can't have a pysical port associated to an MX record (to the best of my knowledge) this isn't an option if I need to use different ports.

Well if the server fails, both IPs on the card would be unavailable, maybe you worded the original message wrong, but you stated you had one ethernet card with muliple IPs. if the server failed, then both IPs would be unavailable. Basically, if you want fault tolerance, place Spamfilter on one Server, use that as primary in MX config, then set the secndary MX to the Exchange server. If SpamFilter Fails, all emails will then be handed off to the exchange, unfiltered of course.]]> Tue, 25 Nov 2003 18:10:00 +0000 https://www.logsat.com/spamfilter/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=2479&PID=2483&title=spamfilter-and-exchange-on-one-server#2483
