Name server (DNS)
This service is required for DNS name resolution. Clients in internal networks should
send DNS requests to this service which in turn forwards them into the Internet. Besides
using it as DNS forwarder, SX-GATE' DNS can also manage the DNS information of
internet domains.
All components on SX-GATE which rely on DNS informations
will contact this server application. Therefore it is crucial that this
service is running in normal operation.
Mail server

servers should relay outgoing emails via the SMTP server of SX-GATE. Use this service
also for the delivery of incoming emails. SX-GATE can accept SMTP connections for
incoming emails. In combination with SX-GATE's mail client, the mail server is also
used to deliver emails retrieved from POP servers in the Internet. Incoming mails can
either be delivered to local mailboxes or forwarded to an internal mail server.
For the delivery of system generated emails, this service is not
required.
