Hi all,
I am using sendmail on a uucp client.
I have my smart-host properly set, and in the sendmail config, I have
"do not use DNS" ticked.
however, whenever sendmail starts up it hangs for 60 seconds. I see the
following in /var/log/maillog:
Oct 2 22:40:53 tomboy sendmail[6481]: My unqualified host name (tomboy) unknown
; sleeping for retry
Oct 2 22:41:53 tomboy sendmail[6481]: unable to qualify my own domain name (tom
boy) -- using short name
My hostname is "tomboy". It is properly registered in /etc/hosts.
How do I get sendmail to recognize this, and not complain.
Also, I get the following maillog messages from sendmail:
Oct 2 22:41:53 tomboy sendmail[6481]: e92Efri06481: forward /home/hosler/.forwa
rd.tomboy: World writable directory
Oct 2 22:41:53 tomboy sendmail[6481]: e92Efri06481: forward /home/hosler/.forwa
rd: World writable directory
In reality, the above 2 mentioned directories do not exist. In addition,
/home/hosler is a soft link to /mnt/home/hosler, and
/mnt/home/hosler is definately not world writeable.
