Hi Folks,
I'm running postfix on my box, but a while back I installed then
uninstalled sendmail.
Something seems to have been left behind in an obscure location. When I
reboot the machine, something creates a cron job (/etc/cron.d/sendmail).
Whatever is doing this leaves the following in the boot log:
Tue Oct 31 15:01:09 2006: Configuring network interfaces...Updating

Tue Oct 31 15:01:11 2006: sendmail: invalid option -- O
Tue Oct 31 15:01:11 2006: sendmail: fatal: usage: sendmail [options]
Note that I did leave /etc/mail in place, but I ran apt-get remove
sendmail, removed the init files, and so forth. Apparantly I missed
something.
Suggestions?
Thanks much,
Miles
