Postfix Smtp Outgoing IP Rotator using iptables

Nov 302009

This is the scheme

e.g:

I got 5 Public IPs. i’m Gonna configure them, so Postfix can use multiple interfaces/ips for outgoing smtp connections.

First we need creating Interface aliases for those 5 public IPs.

In my system, using fedora:

# cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
# cp ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-eth0:1

Edit ifcfg-eth0:1

# vi ifcfg-eth0\:1

DEVICE=eth0 <-- default device
HWADDR=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=202.XXX.XX.2 <-- default eth0 IP address
PREFIX=24
GATEWAY=202.XXX.XX.1
DNS1=202.XXX.XX.XX

Change DEVICE and IPADDR parameters

I've seen someone asking for postfix TCP_TABLE support on centos at mailing list.Actually that was easy to achieved.I'm gonna explain how to build postfix rpm package with TCP_TABLE support.There's great tutorial on how to build postfix RPM package maintain by Simon J Mudd.

I'm gonna used Simon J mud's postfix source RPM package to build the binary.

First download the latest postfix SRPM package

$ rpm -Uvh postfix-2.6.5-1.src.rpm
$ cd `rpm --eval '%{_sourcedir}'`

$ export POSTFIX_SMTPD_MULTILINE_GREETING=1
$ export POSTFIX_LDAP=1
$ export POSTFIX_MYSQL_REDHAT=1
$ export POSTFIX_PCRE=1
$ export POSTFIX_PGSQL=1
$ export POSTFIX_RBL_MAPS=1
