 |
|
Hi all we have a fully qualified domain name pointing at our PIX's outside
interface from the Internet. Currently we are forwarding port 110 to our
mail server (temporary solution).
The problem were having is that when were outside the company all work works
fine using the FQDN as the incoming pop3 server, however when we're on the
company LAN it doesn't work and we have to change it to the private LAN IP
address of the mail server.
I'm guessing there is something to do with the PIX?
Any help will be greatly appreciated to resolve this.
Manu Thanks,
Craig. |

Your correct - as far as I know, unless anyone else has got this
working, the PIX won't allow this.
Who host's the DNS for your site? If you hosted your own DNS the PIX
has a neat way of translating the DNS entries for hosts conencting via
the Internet. Take a look at the static command here if you are using
6.3 code:-
