    I have a problem with smtp 465, 587.
    Since 1 week ago, I started to try beta02 on 7.1.

    But I couldn't connect/open smtp ports.
    I tried to disable both the csf and iptables but doesn't work.


    Does anyone have this problem?

    did you do fresh .08 beta 02 install or was it upgrade from .07 ? .08 beta should of already opened up those smtp ports. If not do it manually at CSF - CSF Firewall info | Centmin Mod Community

    can you post to GIST a full copy of contents of your /etc/csf/csf.conf CSF config file BEFORE you make any changes to it

    If you're using Vultr then they by default block SMTP until you submit a ticket to request to be unblocked - check with your web host if they block SMTP by default. I know Incero based hosts or Vultr do have restrictive SMTP

    I'm on DO and I asked about block of any port, they said no.

    That was a fresh install, lastly I installed 5 hours ago with fresh droplet.

    This is csf.conf-bak
    Code:
    ###############################################################################
    # SECTION:Initial Settings
    ###############################################################################
    # Testing flag - enables a CRON job that clears iptables incase of
    # configuration problems when you start csf. This should be enabled until you
    # are sure that the firewall works - i.e. incase you get locked out of your
    # server! Then do remember to set it to 0 and restart csf when you're sure
    # everything is OK. Stopping csf will remove the line from /etc/crontab
    #
    # lfd will not start while this is enabled
    TESTING = "1"
    
    # The interval for the crontab in minutes. Since this uses the system clock the
    # CRON job will run at the interval past the hour and not from when you issue
    # the start command. Therefore an interval of 5 minutes means the firewall
    # will be cleared in 0-5 minutes from the firewall start
    TESTING_INTERVAL = "5"
    
    # SECURITY WARNING
    # ================
    #
    # Unfortunately, syslog and rsyslog allow end-users to log messages to some
    # system logs via the same unix socket that other local services use. This
    # means that any log line shown in these system logs that syslog or rsyslog
    # maintain can be spoofed (they are exactly the same as real log lines).
    #
    # Since some of the features of lfd rely on such log lines, spoofed messages
    # can cause false-positive matches which can lead to confusion at best, or
    # blocking of any innocent IP address or making the server inaccessible at
    # worst.
    #
    # Any option that relies on the log entries in the files listed in
    # /etc/syslog.conf and /etc/rsyslog.conf should therefore be considered
    # vulnerable to exploitation by end-users and scripts run by end-users.
    #
    # NOTE: Not all log files are affected as they may not use syslog/rsyslog
    #
    # The option RESTRICT_SYSLOG disables all these features that rely on affected
    # logs. These options are:
    # LF_SSHD LF_FTPD LF_IMAPD LF_POP3D LF_BIND LF_SUHOSIN LF_SSH_EMAIL_ALERT
    # LF_SU_EMAIL_ALERT LF_CONSOLE_EMAIL_ALERT LF_DISTATTACK LF_DISTFTP
    # LT_POP3D LT_IMAPD PS_INTERVAL UID_INTERVAL WEBMIN_LOG LF_WEBMIN_EMAIL_ALERT
    # PORTKNOCKING_ALERT
    #
    # This list of options use the logs but are not disabled by RESTRICT_SYSLOG:
    # ST_ENABLE SYSLOG_CHECK LOGSCANNER CUSTOM*_LOG
    #
    # The following options are still enabled by default on new installations so
    # that, on balance, csf/lfd still provides expected levels of security:
    # LF_SSHD LF_FTPD LF_POP3D LF_IMAPD LF_SSH_EMAIL_ALERT LF_SU_EMAIL_ALERT
    #
    # If you set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to "0" or "2" and enable any of the options listed
    # above, it should be done with the knowledge that any of the those options
    # that are enabled could be triggered by spoofed log lines and lead to the
    # server being inaccessible in the worst case. If you do not want to take that
    # risk you should set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to "1" and those features will not work
    # but you will not be protected from the exploits that they normally help block
    #
    # The recommended setting for RESTRICT_SYSLOG is "3" to restrict who can access
    # the syslog/rsyslog unix socket.
    #
    # For further advice on how to help mitigate these issues, see
    # /etc/csf/readme.txt
    #
    # 0 = Allow those options listed above to be used and configured
    # 1 = Disable all the options listed above and prevent them from being used
    # 2 = Disable only alerts about this feature and do nothing else
    # 3 = Restrict syslog/rsyslog access to RESTRICT_SYSLOG_GROUP ** RECOMMENDED **
    RESTRICT_SYSLOG = "0"
    
    # The following setting is used if RESTRICT_SYSLOG is set to 3. It restricts
    # write access to the syslog/rsyslog unix socket(s). The group must not already
    # exists in /etc/group before setting RESTRICT_SYSLOG to 3, so set the option
    # to a unique name for the server
    #
    # You can add users to this group by changing /etc/csf/csf.syslogusers and then
    # restarting lfd afterwards. This will create the system group and add the
    # users from csf.syslogusers if they exist to that group and will change the
    # permissions on the syslog/rsyslog unix socket(s). The socket(s) will be
    # monitored and the permissions re-applied should syslog/rsyslog be restarted
    #
    # Using this option will prevent some legitimate logging, e.g. end-user cron
    # job logs
    #
    # If you want to revert RESTRICT_SYSLOG to another option and disable this
    # feature, change the setting of RESTRICT_SYSLOG and then restart lfd and then
    # syslog/rsyslog and the unix sockets will be reset
    RESTRICT_SYSLOG_GROUP = "mysyslog"
    
    # This options restricts the ability to modify settings within this file from
    # the csf UI. Should the parent control panel be compromised, these restricted
    # options could be used to further compromise the server. For this reason we
    # recommend leaving this option set to at least "1" and if any of the
    # restricted items need to be changed, they are done so from the root shell
    #
    # 0 = Unrestricted UI
    # 1 = Restricted UI
    # 2 = Disabled UI
    RESTRICT_UI = "1"
    
    # Enabling auto updates creates a cron job called /etc/cron.d/csf_update which

    # SECURITY WARNING
    # ================
    #
    # Unfortunately, syslog and rsyslog allow end-users to log messages to some
    # system logs via the same unix socket that other local services use. This
    # means that any log line shown in these system logs that syslog or rsyslog
    # maintain can be spoofed (they are exactly the same as real log lines).
    #
    # Since some of the features of lfd rely on such log lines, spoofed messages
    # can cause false-positive matches which can lead to confusion at best, or
    # blocking of any innocent IP address or making the server inaccessible at
    # worst.
    #
    # Any option that relies on the log entries in the files listed in
    # /etc/syslog.conf and /etc/rsyslog.conf should therefore be considered
    # vulnerable to exploitation by end-users and scripts run by end-users.
    #
    # NOTE: Not all log files are affected as they may not use syslog/rsyslog
    #
    # The option RESTRICT_SYSLOG disables all these features that rely on affected
    # logs. These options are:
    # LF_SSHD LF_FTPD LF_IMAPD LF_POP3D LF_BIND LF_SUHOSIN LF_SSH_EMAIL_ALERT
    # LF_SU_EMAIL_ALERT LF_CONSOLE_EMAIL_ALERT LF_DISTATTACK LF_DISTFTP
    # LT_POP3D LT_IMAPD PS_INTERVAL UID_INTERVAL WEBMIN_LOG LF_WEBMIN_EMAIL_ALERT
    # PORTKNOCKING_ALERT
    #
    # This list of options use the logs but are not disabled by RESTRICT_SYSLOG:
    # ST_ENABLE SYSLOG_CHECK LOGSCANNER CUSTOM*_LOG
    #
    # The following options are still enabled by default on new installations so
    # that, on balance, csf/lfd still provides expected levels of security:
    # LF_SSHD LF_FTPD LF_POP3D LF_IMAPD LF_SSH_EMAIL_ALERT LF_SU_EMAIL_ALERT
    #
    # If you set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to "0" or "2" and enable any of the options listed
    # above, it should be done with the knowledge that any of the those options
    # that are enabled could be triggered by spoofed log lines and lead to the
    # server being inaccessible in the worst case. If you do not want to take that
    # risk you should set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to "1" and those features will not work
    # but you will not be protected from the exploits that they normally help block
    #
    # The recommended setting for RESTRICT_SYSLOG is "3" to restrict who can access
    # the syslog/rsyslog unix socket.

    # permissions on the syslog/rsyslog unix socket(s). The socket(s) will be
    # monitored and the permissions re-applied should syslog/rsyslog be restarted
    #
    # Using this option will prevent some legitimate logging, e.g. end-user cron
    # job logs

    Your /etc/csf/csf.conf is missing 465 port in TCP_OUT list and duplicated 443 and 587 in TCP_OUT list.. you using 465 port for SMTP ?

    then restart csf firewall
    Code:
    service csf restart

    That was create automatically. I know there is some duplicate port. I prefer Yandex and Yandex using TLS with 465.

    I will try your advice, but I don't think so. As I said before, when csf disable, that doesn't fix.

    I will write the result when I'm applying

    I tried @eva2000 but that ports still close.

    This is MyMail plugin's system info tab;


    Port 110 (pop3) open.
    Port 995 closed [Connection timed out]
    Port 993 (imaps) open.
    Port 25 closed [Connection timed out]
    Port 465 closed [Connection timed out]
    Port 587 closed [Connection timed out]

    # are sure that the firewall works - i.e. incase you get locked out of your

    # SECURITY WARNING
    # ================
    #
    # Unfortunately, syslog and rsyslog allow end-users to log messages to some
    # system logs via the same unix socket that other local services use. This
    # means that any log line shown in these system logs that syslog or rsyslog
    # maintain can be spoofed (they are exactly the same as real log lines).
    #
    # Since some of the features of lfd rely on such log lines, spoofed messages
    # can cause false-positive matches which can lead to confusion at best, or
    # blocking of any innocent IP address or making the server inaccessible at
    # worst.
    #
    # Any option that relies on the log entries in the files listed in
    # /etc/syslog.conf and /etc/rsyslog.conf should therefore be considered
    # vulnerable to exploitation by end-users and scripts run by end-users.
    #
    # NOTE: Not all log files are affected as they may not use syslog/rsyslog
    #
    # The option RESTRICT_SYSLOG disables all these features that rely on affected
    # logs. These options are:
    # LF_SSHD LF_FTPD LF_IMAPD LF_POP3D LF_BIND LF_SUHOSIN LF_SSH_EMAIL_ALERT
    # LF_SU_EMAIL_ALERT LF_CONSOLE_EMAIL_ALERT LF_DISTATTACK LF_DISTFTP
    # LT_POP3D LT_IMAPD PS_INTERVAL UID_INTERVAL WEBMIN_LOG LF_WEBMIN_EMAIL_ALERT
    # PORTKNOCKING_ALERT
    #
    # This list of options use the logs but are not disabled by RESTRICT_SYSLOG:
    # ST_ENABLE SYSLOG_CHECK LOGSCANNER CUSTOM*_LOG
    #
    # The following options are still enabled by default on new installations so
    # that, on balance, csf/lfd still provides expected levels of security:
    # LF_SSHD LF_FTPD LF_POP3D LF_IMAPD LF_SSH_EMAIL_ALERT LF_SU_EMAIL_ALERT
    #
    # If you set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to "0" or "2" and enable any of the options listed
    # above, it should be done with the knowledge that any of the those options
    # that are enabled could be triggered by spoofed log lines and lead to the
    # server being inaccessible in the worst case. If you do not want to take that
    # risk you should set RESTRICT_SYSLOG to "1" and those features will not work
    # but you will not be protected from the exploits that they normally help block
    #
    # The recommended setting for RESTRICT_SYSLOG is "3" to restrict who can access
    # the syslog/rsyslog unix socket.

    # The following setting is used if RESTRICT_SYSLOG is set to 3. It restricts
    # write access to the syslog/rsyslog unix socket(s). The group must not already

    # to a unique name for the server
    #
    # You can add users to this group by changing /etc/csf/csf.syslogusers and then
    # restarting lfd afterwards. This will create the system group and add the
    # users from csf.syslogusers if they exist to that group and will change the
    # permissions on the syslog/rsyslog unix socket(s). The socket(s) will be
    # monitored and the permissions re-applied should syslog/rsyslog be restarted
    #
    # Using this option will prevent some legitimate logging, e.g. end-user cron
    # job logs
    #
    # If you want to revert RESTRICT_SYSLOG to another option and disable this
    # feature, change the setting of RESTRICT_SYSLOG and then restart lfd and then

    then the problem is NOT CSF Firewall so it's something else

    unfortunately such troubleshooting is left to the end user.
    is this plugin located on your centmin mod server or a remote server ? if remote maybe ip address of remote server is blocked or banned from CSF Firewall

    csf -h to look at help file to see how to grep ip to see if it's denied or allowed

    Code:
    csf -g IPADDRESS
    and check /etc/csf/csf.allow and /etc/csf/csf.deny
    Code:
    grep IPADDRESS /etc/csf/csf.allow
    grep IPADDRESS /etc/csf/csf.deny

    This plugin run same server.

    Interesting is, server notification emails are sended which is configurate in centmin.sh;


    #!/bin/sh
    EMAIL='bla@blabla.com' # Server notification email address enter only 1 address


    But frontend (Wordpress) doesn't connect that ports.

    Still I'm tearing my hair :)

    But problem was DigitalOcean.

    I did setup on Vultr with same configuration, result is everything OK. 465,587,995 are open on Vultr.

      Hi, still I'm not able to connect 25,465,587,995 port.

      I read some topics on DO Forums and I found more than one topic about smtp blocking. One of topic is I can't connect to any port 25 (I've tried yahoo mail server), so I can't send mail from the vps :( | DigitalOcean

      So, how can we fix this block? I need to connect relay mail server Yandex, Mandrill etc via Wordpress.

      Thanks
      Akın

      Akın,

      Thank you for the information, however I'm not sure what from that is the issue here. You are not a trial user and that appears to be the information in that thread.

      If you are still not able to connect we need more information, such as what additional troubleshooting you have done? We are not blocking the mail ports at this time, so we need to know exactly what's happening to assist you.

      What is the exact command you are running and what is the exact error you are getting?

      Which droplet is this regarding? At this time you have destroyed the original droplet linked to the ticket. If it's still regarding IP address 46.101.19.10, port 25 is not open or listening to connections.

      So we need to know more of what you have tried and what exactly is going on. It doesn't appear at this time you have an active mail server running.

      Let us know if you have any other questions!

      Regards,
      James

      I'm talking about all my droplets.

      I'm using CSF, Postfix, PHP 5.6.9 (I tried with all version include PHPNG), Nginx 1.9.1 and MariaDB 10.0.19.

      So, this is my CSF configuration file TCP_OUT section;

      # Allow outgoing TCP ports
      TCP_OUT = "111,20,21,22,25,53,80,110,113,443,465,587,993,995,2049,1110,1194,9418"

      And my wordpress plugin whic is MyMail said;

      Port 110 (pop3) open.
      Port 995 closed [Connection timed out]
      Port 993 (imaps) open.
      Port 25 closed [Connection timed out]
      Port 465 closed [Connection timed out]
      Port 587 closed [Connection timed out]

      Another hand, I setup new test droplet on "Vultr" with same stack & same configurations, result is OK, smtp ports are open on Vultr.

      This problem on DO.

    I wondered for a new reply.

    strange indeed, maybe try rebooting DO droplet could have lost some form of network connectivity ??
