You have to rebuild the sendmail.cf with the sendmail.mc from /etc/mail if you don't know how to do it just ask but basically you need sendmail-cf and m4 installed and type m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc < /etc/mail/sendmail.cf then copy the sendmail.cf to /etc when you have verified it is good.
Not sure of the exact syntax of that line, It's late and I can't be bothered to check :) anyone? there is a line that starts DAEMON_OPTIONS, well you either want to edit that line or just comment it out all together before rebuilding sendmail.cf On 26 Nov 2001 at 15:44, Steve Lee wrote: > telnet into port 25 and see if it accepts connections from the local > locp first. see if sendmail is running. are you sure it is running. > do a netstat -an | grep 25 look for senmail listening on port 25. > > Then we can go from there. > > > > On Sun, 18 Nov 2001, Ashwin Kutty wrote: > > > > > I did a fresh install of RH 7.2 on a machine and I cant get any > > connections from the outside world to my box for sendmail..
