I have completed my toaster install on a 4.9 base install with a complete CVS update. Everything seams to be working fine but whe I try to connect to send I cannot even get a connection. I am testing this on a lan using the 192.168.1.0/24 block so I am assuming this is due to the private IP space...   I have tried to telnet to port 25 and cant even get a connection started...

Am I overlooking something.. This is going in a rack with public IPs in a few days  and I wil have some test time... but if this isnt the issue then I would like to get some ideas as soon as possible.

Thanks

Did you run
services start
?
when trying to connect with
telnet localhost 25
does it try to connect to ipv4 or ipv6? Try
telnet 127.0.0.1 25
instead
Do a
netstat -a | grep smtp 
to see if its listening.
Read your log files.

I am having a similar problem.  I see that it is listening, but when I try to connect I get this in /var/log/mail/smtp/current

/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/lib/libc.so.4: mmap of entire address space failed: Cannot allocate memory

The machine is a test machine with 768 MB of ram.  I am very anxious to get this setup and running.  Any help provided is greatly appreciated.
