Trusted Hosts |
||
When NetMail® agents need to access the message store or message queue, they create an IP connection to the associated NMAP Server and request the information they need. By default, the NMAP Agent requires all agents running on other servers (including other NMAP Agents) to authenticate with the server before it carries out their requests. NOTE: NetMail agent authentication does not use clear-text passwords. By designating a messaging server as a trusted host, agents running on that server are not required to authenticate with the NMAP server. Rather, they are given open access to the NMAP Agent and its accompanying message queues and mail directories. Although not required, designating trusted hosts improves performance in distributed messaging systems. IMPORTANT: Because trusted hosts have complete access to all mailboxes and queued messages, ensure that messaging servers with trusted host status are secure. Additionally, do not grant trusted host status to a Linux* machine unless login access to the trusted host machine is restricted to the system administrator.

IP Addresses |
The IP addresses of messaging servers hosting NetMail agents that need open access to the NMAP Agent. Enter one IP address per line. On NetWare®, because 127.0.0.0 and localhost are automatically trusted hosts, you do not need to add them to this list.
