My FreeBSD box is connected to a Windows 2000 server which connects
to the Internet Via
DirecPC Satelite. I seem to be unable to send outgoing mail from the
FreeBSD Box.
maillog shows the connection out to my ISPs Sendmail and it gets
accepted, but never makes
it to the destination.

Im sure its going to their postmaster account as the return address
is to my FreeBSD Box, which has a non routable
192.168.X.X Address, thus it cant send me the error and instead would
go to the ISPs postmaster.

This is also why the mails dont get sent Im suire, mail sent from
192.168.X.X Address, then mapped to
the ISP IP the 2000 server gets assigned, thus things dont match up.

If I had a static ip address and hostname Id have sendmail masquerade
as that, however I get a differing dynamic one.

Then there is the DirecPC itself mapping traffic to appear to have
come from THEM with a 3rd altogether different IP, so
the return traffic will come back over the Air.

Is there a solution to this to get sendmail servers out there to
accept mail from my box? The dialup on the 2000 can send
so the ISP is allowing the DirecPC IPs to Relay it would seem. Id say
the reject point would be the ISPs
sendmail server seeing the 192.168.X.X not reslving to a name from
its point of view, or the servers it tries
to forward the mail on to.
