Re: F9 - sendmail won't send on startup?

It's very unlikely I can help if Craig White can't, but doesn't it sound as if sendmail needs something that starts after sendmail in /etc/rc.d ? Why not try chkconfig sendmail off and then add service sendmail start to /etc/rc.d/rc.local and see if it works there. Or you could try giving it a later prefix number in /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/ ? Thanks for the suggestions, unfortunately neither work. Perhaps your sendmail needs NM to be already running? I notice that NM starts extraordinarily late in Fedora-9, after I have logged in. This strikes me as slightly crazy, like a lot of things about NM. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

I had already done that, quite some time ago. There would appear to be quite a few problems with letting NetworkManager control the network. On my laptop, still running Fedora 7, I decided to use Network Manager as its connection to a network could change at a moment's notice. I had to change the order of various init scripts so that other things would work (NFS, for instance), and add scripts to the Network Manager Dispatcher so that NTP, for example, would work (restart the NTP daemon). It was quite a pain. I couldn't do the really obvious thing, and start Network Manager really early, as it needed some other things first. And other network init scripts needed moving further back so that the network would be up by the time the system had got around to them. This box, running Fedora 9, is a desktop on a LAN that doesn't really change much. So I see no point in banging my head against a brick wall trying to fix up Network Manager. I don't need it, and it's too damn badly implemented. It starts too late, by default. And at least sendmail and NTP need restarting after it. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ uname -r 2.6.25.6-55.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

Actually, no... On second thought, I don't think so. The original configuration should be fine, it *listens* to the localhost (so logwatch can output to email), but not to the external interface (so no hackers can spam it). It can still *send* elsewhere without changing that. But, yes, I had changed that part of sendmail, because I wanted to try sending mail between each machine directly, while fault finding the peculiarities of all of this. The problem existed before customising sendmail, and after. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ uname -r 2.6.25.6-55.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

So what's different about my two computers from yours? DNS? but again, I don't see the need to route e-mail through the local system when I've got a fully configured smtp server on my LAN.

I'm using thunderbird and have it configured to use the local sendmail for sending. The only thing I've modified in my sendmail.mc file is the masquerading. Any ideas where to start looking? It's very unlikely I can help if Craig White can't, but doesn't it sound as if sendmail needs something that starts after sendmail in /etc/rc.d ? Why not try chkconfig sendmail off and then add service sendmail start to /etc/rc.d/rc.local and see if it works there. Or you could try giving it a later prefix number in /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/ ? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
