[SOLVED] Applying RBL List

[r8escjohn]

I think I may be missing something basic here on getting the RBL I put in to work.
Yesterday put in:

zmprov mcf +zimbraMtaRestriction "reject_rbl_client b.barracuracentral.org"

Verified input by doing:

zimbra:~ # su zimbra
zimbra@zimbra:/root> zmprov gacf | grep zimbraMtaRestriction
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_invalid_hostname
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_non_fqdn_sender
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_rbl_client b.barracudacentral.org
zimbra@zimbra:/root>

Then did

postfix reload
zmcontrol stop
zmcontrol start

However after 24 hours when I check to see if anything was blocked by the RBL I get:

zimbra:~ # /usr/local/sbin/dnsblcount /var/log/zimbra.log
=================================
Total DNSBL rejections:
zimbra:~ #

and in /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/main.cf nor when I do a 'postconf -n' I do not see my RBL listing:

Am I missing some very basic to get this RBL to work or do i just need to wait to see any RBL hits?

Check /var/log/zimbra.log after you restart for any error messages. Have just checked my server and I get

[zimbra@office conf]$ zmprov gcf zimbraMtaRestriction
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_invalid_hostname
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_non_fqdn_sender
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_rbl_client b.barracudacentral.org
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org

and for main.cf

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_non_fqdn_recipient, permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination, reject_unlisted_recipient, reject_invalid_hostname, reject_non_fqdn_sender, reject_rbl_client b.barracudacentral.org, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org, permit

Hmm....This is intresting...

Mar 10 12:01:41 zimbra postfix/postfix-script[26559]: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.4.7.5z/conf/main.cf
Mar 10 12:01:42 zimbra postfix/postfix-script[26583]: starting the Postfix mail system

Other that that I find this that stands out...

Mar 10 12:01:00 zimbra zmmailboxdmgr[25857]: file /opt/zimbra/log/zmmailboxd_manager.pid does not exist

Are these what I need to be looking at more closely, or some other direction?
Thanks!

Can you check your config again using zmprov and then perform a stop/start of ZCS. As soon as it has started check /var/log/zimbra.log for any error messages. What are the permissions on /opt/zimbra/conf/main.cf* ?

[r8escjohn]

Thought I had a fix by changing my main.cf rights from zimbra/zimbra (which it was/is and I am assuming that is incorrect) to root/postfix. No go as on restart of Zimbra (zmcontrol stop/start) the rights of /opt/zimbra/postfix/main.cf changed back to zimbra/zimbra....:-<

Current zmprov:

zimbra@zimbra:/root> zmprov gacf | grep zimbraMtaRestriction
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_invalid_hostname
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_non_fqdn_sender
zimbraMtaRestriction: reject_rbl_client b.barracudacentral.org

Set ownership of main.cf

-rw-r--r-- 1 root postfix 2112 Mar 11 14:34 main.cf

Current ownership of the main.cf-after Zimbra start/stop.....

-rw-r--r-- 1 zimbra zimbra 2112 Mar 11 14:41 main.cf

I am thinking this is my issue that main.cf is owned by zimbra and not root as in my zimbra.log I still show this error:

Mar 11 14:41:15 zimbra postfix/postfix-script[14665]: warning: not owned by root: /opt/zimbra/postfix-2.4.7.5z/conf/main.cf

And in my main.cf it does not list my RBL in the 'smtpd_recipient_restrictions'

That "error" is normal and can be ignored. It's certainly not the cause of your problems. What does your /opt/zimbra/conf/postfix_recipient_restrictions.cf look like?

You could also try the following:

zimbra@mail:~> zmprov mcf zimbraMtaRestrictionRBLs b.barracudacentral.org
zimbra@mail:~> zmmtactl stop
zimbra@mail:~> zmmtactl start

[r8escjohn]

Brillant!
While running the

zimbra@mail:~> zmprov mcf zimbraMtaRestrictionRBLs b.barracudacentral.org

gave me an

zimbra@zimbra:~/postfix/conf> zmprov mcf zimbraMtaRestrictionRBLs b.barracudacentral.org
ERROR: account.INVALID_ATTR_NAME (invalid attr name: [LDAP: error code 17 - zimbraMtaRestrictionRBLs: attribute type undefined])

I was able to manually edit the /opt/zimbra/conf/postfix_recipient_restrictions.cf file and add 'reject_rbl_client b.barracudacentral.org' listing, do a quick 'zmmtactl stop'/'start' and we are golden! After only about 5 minutes I have:

zimbra:/opt/zimbra/postfix/conf # /usr/local/sbin/dnsblcount /var/log/zimbra.log
b.barracudacentral.org 40
=================================
Total DNSBL rejections: 40

Woo Hoo!
Now manualy editing that 'postfix_recipient_restrictions.cf' file was probally a no-no, but at this point it woked for me.
I will continue to monitor but so far so good!

The addition of zimbraMtaRestrictionRBLs must have been more recent than the 5.0.6 version of ZCS you're using. Seeing as that is now working for you, I wouldn't worry about it being in the postfix_recipient_restrictions.cf file. But if you ever want to remove it, you'll have to remember to remove it from that file since removing it from zimbraMtaRetrictions won't have any affect. In any event, I'm glad this got you going!

[uxbod]

I would highly recommend upgrading then! Am glad all is working though Very odd IMHO as that is a standard part of Postfix
