Linux - Jnos Setup and Configuration HOW-TO

Domain.txt file

By John Martin KF8KK

 

The domain.txt file is a local cache for DNS information.  

Over the course of running Jnos, this file will expand and contract with information dynamically placed in it by the system.   You will typically find entries for servers that Jnos has needed to access in the recent past.

In some cases, if your SMTP mail does not flow, you will find that you need to enter your own jnos server into the domain.txt in order for the smtp mail to function. [The most common problem with SMTP mail not flowing is that the Jnos machine does not know who it is-- and entering who it is in the domain.txt usually solves that].
