Newbie problem with setup

Hi Martin.
   I downloaded and setup the VMWare image. How do I best check and test
   DNS?
   Jeff

Open the VMware console and login the console with:

username: djigzo-admin
password: djigzo

the Djigzo console should now be opened. Now select Info -> DNS. This
should show the IP address of the configured DNS. If no DNS is set, you
can manually set the DNS in Config -> DNS.

See the Djigzo virtual appliance guide for more information:
http://www.djigzo.com/documents/virtual-appliance-guide.pdf

Kind regards,

Martijn Brinkers

Maybe "dnsutils" should be included so one can test DNS resolution with "dig"?

If you test the Appliance at Home or behind some cheap broadband
router it might be the problem that some of these devices don't
support MX record queries.

You can try to install "dig" with "sudo apt-get install dnsutils" and
then test the MX resolution with "dig somedomain MX".

Yes I'll do that since I had to install dnsutils more than once when
installing the Virtual Appliance. I try to keep the Virtual Appliance as
clean as possible to make it more secure and make it less likely that
updates should be installed. dnsutils (and Telnet) however are tools
that come handy. I will add them when the virtual appliance is updated.

You can try to install "dig" with "sudo apt-get install dnsutils" and
then test the MX resolution with "dig somedomain MX".

And if you need telnet (to manually test SMTP connection) you can
install it with

sudo apt-get install telnet

PS. make sure you install all updates first (can be done from the
console Other -> update

Kind regards,

Martijn
