Hi, I am running OpenSolaris 2008.11 snv_101b_rc2 X86 on a amd64 machine. From the logs I see that the sendmail daemons cannot bind to a IPv4 socket.

The reason is a bug in glibc IPv6 procedures. A workaround was to remove the hostname localhost from the IPv6 adress in /etc/hosts. I tried this on my openSolaris box as well, but with no avail. Is there a procedure known to overcome this problem with openSolaris? -Dieter -- Dieter Kl?nter | Systemberatung http://dkluenter.de
