  • 1.  How to set smtp authentication in vsphere4?

    Posted Nov 29, 2009 06:48 AM

    Hello Everyone

    I am trying vsphere4 and I found a problem with email setting. I cannot find smtp autnentication setting in my vcenter config.

    There are only smtp server and sender address in my config in vcenter configuration--mail. But I just can not find a server without smtp authentication. So, I can not send email when a job done.

    So, can I set smtp setting in vsphere?

    Is not possible in vCenter Server.

    But you can install in your Windows Server a SMTP relay (also the one from Microsoft can work) to use authentication and set vCenter to use localhost as SMTP server.

    Thank you Andre.

    I hope vmware will add this function...adding smtp in my server means more complicate. But just now I can only do this. Thank you again.
