I am getting a slew of entries in /var/log/mail/mail.warn that look like this: Jul 13 10:20:01 BananaSlug sm-msp-queue[1116]: gethostbyaddr(192.168.1.45) failed: 1 Jul 13 10:30:01 BananaSlug sm-msp-queue[1150]: gethostbyaddr(192.168.1.45) failed: 1 Jul 13 10:40:01 BananaSlug sm-msp-queue[1175]: gethostbyaddr(192.168.1.45) failed: 1 Jul 13 10:50:02 BananaSlug sm-msp-queue[1206]: gethostbyaddr(192.168.1.45) failed: 1 Jul 13 11:00:02 BananaSlug sm-msp-queue[1244]: gethostbyaddr(192.168.1.45) failed: 1 Jul 13 11:10:02 BananaSlug sm-msp-queue[1268]: gethostbyaddr(192.168.1.45) failed: 1 They happen every 10 mins, which is the polling interval for the sendmail daemon. Has anyone seen this? Is this a misconfigured sendmail thing, or is there some DHCP issue here? An interesting note is that the address seems to increment by one with each reboot. I shut off every night to let some of the heat dissipate from my apartment, and to allow me to sleep w/o the roar of the fans...
