      maillog and messages should cover anything likely to have happened.

      No package updates?

      nope.

      [root@relay01 ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.team-cymru.org

 * updates: repos.lax.quadranet.com
No packages marked for update

      Sorry, I meant historically, like yesterday before the issue came up. Check the yumlog.

      March 4th was the last update.

        The yum.log went from Feb 23 to March 4, so I would say nothing there.

          Do you have any TLS here? Any cert expire?

            Not yet for postfix. That is on my to do list, https://mangolassi.it/topic/12545/how-do-i-setup-tls-on-a-postfix-relay

              Maybe your firewall is blocking connection. Try to stop firewall and check if it works. Maybe you or somebody else changed some rules.

                The odd part is that the initial connection works, then it drops afterwards.

                    No one else even knows how to handle this.

                    Related note, I need to get more documentation in place.

                      firewalld has port 25 allowed.

                        Postfix config has not been touched since setup a year ago.

                          Is there any filtering in postfix, like amavis, spamassassin?

                              And problem resolved.

                              On the 1st, the damned DHCP lease had failed again due to the mysterious time drift issues I have been tracking down in another thread.

                              But I needed this system up so I launched nmtui and set a static IP.... Wait for it.. to 10.201.1.12/32

                              /fucking sigh....

                              I also enabled the Time Synchronization in Hyper-V on March 1st. As soon as I fixed the /32, this morning, the Hyper-V integration started fixing the time every 5 seconds.. screw that. Turned it back off. I will count on chronyd it works well as long as the IP stays online.

                              [root@relay01 ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages

                                  I really want to figure out what is causing these VM's to do that. it is not normal.

                                  This problem was caused by me not being careful enough when I changed something to avoid the DHCP problem.
