FEATURE('nocanonify')
...is probably what you are looking for, otherwise you can enclose a raw IP
address in square brackets (ie, [1.2.3.4]) in a mailertable entry or elsewhere
which will disable the MX lookups for that specific host.

What is the > FreeBSD way of activating the nodsn feature? The same as for any other Sendmail feature. You'd have to edit your local `sendmail.mc' or `hostname.mc' file in `/etc/mail', add the new feature line, and run (while still in `/etc/mail'): # make # make install # make restart The only FreeBSD-specific thing about enabling Sendmail features is that in FreeBSD the default `foo.mc' file that is used is the one that matches your hostname. So if your hostname is currently set to `foo.bar', look for `/etc/mail/foo.bar.mc' to add any new Sendmail features. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I always add restart to the all: target and I also symlink hostname.cf to sendmail.cf. That way a simple make will always take care of everything.

RE: sendmail & dns lookups
After trying to activate the sendmail nodsn feature in FreeBSD 6.0 I get a make error. It seems that this feature is no longer available. The README file talks about some hosts switch file which does not exist. So back to original question which is now modified to say, How do you tell sendmail in FreeBSD 6.0 not to do dns lookups? -Original Message- From: Giorgos Keramidas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 20, 2006 11:10 PM To: fbsd_user Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: sendmail & dns lookups On 2006-03-20 23:02, fbsd_user <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > How do you tell sendmail not to do dns lookups?
