We recently updated one of our servers (VPS on Aventurin{e}) using yum and now have been listed on CBL because "This IP address is HELO'ing as "localhost.localdomain" which violates the relevant standards (specifically: RFC5321)"
Looking in my hosts file I have
# /etc/hosts
# Auto-generated file. Keep your customizations at the bottom of this file.
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.2.6 server1.localdomain server1-venet0:0.localdomain server1-venet0:0
#END of auto-generated code. Customize beneath this line.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost server1.fast-mail.net
# Auto-generated hostname. Please do not remove this comment.
192.168.2.6 server1.<CORRECTDOMAIN> server1-venet0:0.localdomain server1.localdomain server1-venet0:0.<CORRECTDOMAIN> server1 server1-venet0:0
### Begin - Nuonce hosts Fix
127.0.0.1 server1.<CORRECTDOMAIN>
192.168.2.6 server1.<CORRECTDOMAIN>
### End - Nuonce hosts Fix
[root at server1 etc]#
I amended the details as follows, but obviously these are auto-generated and it will 'break' again. Where else can I fix this permanently?
# /etc/hosts
# Auto-generated file. Keep your customizations at the bottom of this file.
127.0.0.1 server1 server1.<CORRECTDOMAIN>
192.168.2.6 server1.<CORRECTDOMAIN> server1-venet0:0.localdomain server1-venet0:0
#END of auto-generated code. Customize beneath this line.
Thanks
