I just did bind specific for dual stack on iseries. I didn't have to make the domino servers bind specific because they already were. I could be wrong, but if you have multiple domino servers running on the box, smtp for them are probably bound to the specific IP, so all that's left is binding your native to another one. there isn't one document that tells you both sides or even everything about one side. The domino side is a little more elusive. I ended up calling IBM support and a guy talked me through how to check, and we were already there. The iseries side is easier. here's a couple of links. one shows only things specific to the binding process, not for setting up the IPs http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/index.htm?info/rzair/rzairrzairstack.htm http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.nsf/1ac66549a21402188625680b0002037e/b8a7f2a25678830686256c1c0052e8fa?OpenDocument&Highlight=0,bind,specific,smtp hope this helps. Rick ---------the last one---------------- I think the terminology here is "Bind Specific". That's what you want to search on. There's a way to tell Domino only to bind to a specific IP address, and a way to tell the native SMTP the same. I just can't remember how off the top of my head. I have about a dozen interfaces defined for domino and other 400 stuff, and another dozen for IXS. Maybe the domino400 list would help? I'll pay attention to the details like you did and see if I notice the same error.

In the joblog for QTSMTPSRVD I found a message: "SMTP unable to bind to Internet Protocol interface 0.0.0.0." followed immediately by SMTP unable to bind to any Internet Protocol interface." and "End of prestart jobs in progress." So I tried starting SMTP through iNav and got the same result. Paging through the SMTP properties tabs in iNav I found the bindings tab, which has two radio buttons labeled "Use all interfaces" and "Select an interface." Use all interfaces was checked. After I checked Select an interface and chose the proper IP address for my ethernet line SMTP started right up and went right back to work. My guess is that when I ended SMTP on the Series my Domino server grabbed the port, at least for its own IP address, causing the SMTP bind to fail on that IP address. I don't know if that's what happens in your case Rob, but in our case SMTP was apparently trying to bind on all lines, including a token ring line and an internal line to an IPCS that are no longer used.
