Can you grab 30 or so lines from your maillog after you force a notification through nagios and share it with us here? I'm not sure what the exact directory is for freeBSD it may just be:

Code: Select all

/var/log/maillog

Ok, here are the 30 lines. I'm seeing some stat=Sent sections but as far as I can tell my Exchange server isn't getting the messages:

I realize it probably doesn't make any difference but I redid my aliases.db and now that one error is gone.

Thanks,

Just out of curiosity, what did you change?

Hey tmcdonald, I did a Google search and saw all I had to do was to just run newalises. That took care of the "/etc/mail/aliases.db out of date" error.

Thanks,

This hasn't been resolved yet. I uploaded the 30 lines of my maillog and I'm waiting to hear back from anyone who can see what the problem is.

Thanks,

Have you checked your exchange/relay itself? It looks like your mail is being sent out just fine, it is just not being received on the other end which is indicative of a problem with the middle layer.

Thank you slansing, the problem is a combination of my Nagios server and my Exchange Server. My Exchange Server doesn't allow relaying off of the Primary IP address so I use a Secondary address configured on the server for internal device relaying. I ran a Wireshark scan (which I should have done earlier) and saw that my Nagios server is sending information to the Primary address. I've checked on Google to see how to change Nagios' mail configuration to Exchange's Secondary address but I can't find anything. I checked my config files and I can't find anything there that's pointing to my Exchange Server so now I'm wondering if I need to change something in FreeBSD's mail setup. I'll Google that and see if I can find something.

Thanks again slansing, it's a relay issue.

Your smtp connection from nagios should be based on DNS. The simplest, although technically improper way to do it, would be to modify /etc/hosts and add a line for the mail server with the IP that you want it to send to. Alternatively the proper route is to create a dns record internally that points the the exchange servers secondary IP and point nagios at that IP. At least that is likely how I would resolve the issue from what I read.
