James 2.0a3-cvs
Started POP3 Server plain:110
Started SMTP Server plain:25
Started NNTP Server plain:119

It shouldn't....

What is happening that seems to indicate this?

I don't think so, under $JAMES_HOME/apps/ you should now have a directory
james/
and now James should be running just fine. Anything else you want to
configure should be in conf/config.xml.

The conf/config.xml file seems to indicate that you can use either.
Looking
at the source code for org.apache.james.dnsserver.DNSServer, the DNSServer
relies on stuff in the org.xbill.DNS package, and it looks like it
operates
like any DNS server would.

I'm guessing you're staring at these two pieces of XML:

<!-- CONFIRM? -->
      <!-- servernames identifies the DNS namespace served by this
instance
      of James.
      If autodetect is TRUE, James wil attempt to discover its own name
AND use
      any specified servernames.  If autodetect is FALSE, James will use
only
      the specified servernames.  By default, the servername 'localhost'
is
      specified. This can be removed, if required. -->
      <servernames autodetect="TRUE">
        <!--
        <servername>To override autodetected server names
                    uncomment this.  </servername>-->
        <servername>localhost</servername>
      </servernames>

...
...

<!-- CONFIRM? Enter ip address of your DNS server, one per element -->
  <dnsserver>
        <servers>
          <server>127.0.0.1</server>
          <!--<server> put extra dns server address here </server>-->
        </servers>
        <authoritative>false</authoritative>
  </dnsserver>


I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like you can leave the defaults or use
the DNS IP's of your ISP.



Regards,
Michael

RE: James-2.0a3 Instalations

Ok. I was able to start it for the first time and it unpacked james. Now
I configured the root user and dns and Stara it again and the message is
again:
                         Phoenix 4.0a4
 James 2.0a3-cvs
 Started POP3 Server plain:110
 Started SMTP Server plain:25
 Started NNTP Server plain:119

I think it unpacks the files again.
Is there another file I should run or any other thing I have to
configure ??
What DNS should I put in DNS, the DNS of my computer or the internal
server DNS ????
Thanks

Javier,

That behavior is on purpose. Press Ctrl-C to hard stop the server. After
the
first run, James should be unpacked for you to configure as needed.

I understand that there is a 'shutdown' command written into
the admin interface. Admin interface is basically a telnet session to
port
4555.

There was actually a recent thread to this list about stopping James.
Check the
archives.

Regards,
Michael
