Part II, The DCC Saga...
=20
Our story so far...
=20
A newbie, overconfident after installing a host of apps over the last =
year jumped in and dropped dccm into his system starting at 1am thinking =
it was a easy install. Indeed this was tempting Murphy. After hours of =
brain destroying head bashing against several walls he decided to post =
to this forum his dilemma out of pure desperation..
=20
Background=20
Sendmail 8.12.7 running on FreeBSD4.4 was setup with milters and runs =
dccm using all defaults=20
Dccm reports in the sendmail log:=20
dccm[81022]: skip asking DCC 300.000 seconds more after failure=20

This would lead one to believe that there was a firewall or something =
blocking the port. However Stupid Newbie ( me ) decided to test the port =
and setup ssh to run on 6277. I had to as my host/provider has removed =
the Traceroute command for some evil reason on my root access server. =
This confirmed that 6277 was open - free and usable. I stopped dccm for =
this test obviously. So there is nothing stopping dccm/cdcc from =
connecting to the outside that is obvious.
=20
This is perplexing for sure.. My newbie brain popped.
=20
I cleaned out everything and reinstalled and it made no difference.
=20
No other errors in any log - compile went well.
=20
My total install was:
=20
Gunzip / Tar /
configure --with-sendmail=3D/usr/local/sendmail/sendmail-8.12.7 =
--disable-server
Make
Make install
Cpcc info <<-- didn't work..
=20
Am I leaving something out ??
=20
I want to fight the SPAM war on the front line. I -really- want to use =
dccm. I have a nice well nurtured spamtrap address I have carefully =
attracted 40 emails a day to. I weekly go opt in the opt out of many =
lists using it. Post it on usenet and give it to places like Wallmart =
and Denny's. Even after spamassassin and many many rbl checks I still =
get 5 a day through it that are pure evil spam. I want those to get =
reported to dcc.
=20
Does anyone have a spamtrap address they might want my spamtrap to feed =
to ? If I can't get dccm to work I want to feed my spamtrap into a well =
connected dcc client that can fully utilize it in the war.
