How can I configure multiple MDaemon servers to share the same domain?
From the MDaemon console:
Click Setup
Click Server Settings
Click Domain Sharing
Check Enable Domain Sharing
In the Host or IP field, enter the host name or IP address of an MDaemon server which you are using Domain Sharing
If you are using a non-standard Minger port (4069) change the entry in the Minger port field. (Most likely, you'll keep this at 4069.)
If you are requiring a password for Minger queries on the shared server, enter it in the Minger password field
Click Add
Repeat steps 6-9 for any other MDaemon servers with which you are using Domain Sharing
Note that this requires the Minger service on all the MDaemon servers in use to be activated. To activate Minger, follow these steps:
Click on the Accounts menu
Choose Account Options
Click Minger
Check Enable Minger server
If you wish to use a non-standard port for Minger queries, change the entry in Listen for Minger connections on this UDP port field
If you wish to require a password for queries, select Minger queries require a shared secret field
Click OK
Notes
MDaemon will also query any servers listed under the Domain Sharing settings for local accounts and incoming messages sent from local accounts if they are not listed in the current server's database.
This article refers to MDaemon 10.x and above.
Note: You can append a colon and port (i.e mail.example.com:2525), if you wish to use a specific, non-default port when sending SMTP messages to the host (this is not the same as the Minger port). The option to set this up is under, Setup > Default Domain & Servers > Domain Sharing tab > Host or IPsection.
