If you are sending through a relay, you would want to set your email settings to SMTP and fill in the settings at
Admin -> Manage Email Settings

The IP goes in the Host field. Default port would be 25, but you may have a different network setup.

does this SMTP server use user/password authentication? If it doesn't you can make these fields blank.

The specifics of what is required to send mail through the SMTP server you would need to get from the Administrator of your relay host.

If you are relaying through a smart host, no services need to be installed on your machine

To add services to the localhost go to: Core Config Manager->Monitoring->Services->Add New

The "default" setup (skipping the "http") will be:

Code: Select all

Current Load:
Config Name = localhost
Service Description = Current Load
Check command = check_local_load
$ARG1$ = 5.0,4.0,3.0
$ARG2$ = 10.0,6.0,4.0
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = Current Users
Check command = check_local_users
$ARG1$ = 20
$ARG2$ = 50
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = Current Users
Check command = check_local_users
$ARG1$ = 20
$ARG2$ = 50
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = PING
Check command = check_local_users
$ARG1$ = 20
$ARG2$ = 50
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = Root Partition
Check command = check_local_disk
$ARG1$ = 20%
$ARG2$ = 10%
$ARG3$ = /
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = SSH
Check command = check_ssh
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = Swap Usage
Check command = check_local_swap
$ARG1$ = 20
$ARG2$ = 10
Template Name = local-service

Config Name = localhost
Service Description = Total Processes
Check command = check_local_procs
$ARG1$ = 250
$ARG2$ = 400
$ARG3$ = RSZDT
Template Name = local-service
