As part of debugging massive email failures for my local lab domain
after our campus IS people changed from Solaris to Windows2000 for DNS
last weekend, I had the occasion to change the name server entries in
/etc/resolv.conf.  I thought (wrongly it turns out) that I could just
make the changes, and they would be picked up automatically.  Is this
sendmail remembering the name server list it got when it was started?
Can I just send it a HUP and have it pick up the changes?  I know that
going down to single user and back to multiuser is sufficient, but is
there a less intrusive way to force the changes to be recognized?  I
would like a procedure that worked globally for all processes, not just
sendmail, if possible.

TIA,

Bud Dodson
