I needed to add these lines into sendmail.mc: MASQUERADE_AS(mydomain.com)dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(mydomain.com)dnl Also I had to edit the solaris-generic.m4 file to remove the part which exposes root's email as NetBackup will be sending it's emails from the root account.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Setting NetBackup "Sender" address in UNIX
Have you tried
sendmail -f where email is a valid non root e-mail address on your
network?
such as
sendmail -f $SENDER_EMAIL -t $RECIPIENT_LIST

Many of the notifications are generated by notify scripts that live
somewhere
under /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/. The originals are in the "goodies/"
subdir,
and are intended to be customized as needed. On Solaris, you would need
to
add "-r [EMAIL PROTECTED]" to the "mailx" command used to generate the message,
e.g. in mail_bp_reports.

That's a sendmail question, but you may be in need of enabling some form
of sender masquerading. On Solaris, look in /usr/lib/mail/README for some
flags you can set in /usr/lib/mail/cf/sendmail.mc and then regen
sendmail.cf
based on those settings.

[Veritas-bu] Setting NetBackup "Sender" address in UNIX
All, NetBackup notifications currently end up in my Inbox as from "Super-User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" which our corporate email server does not like at all. Is there a way to get NetBackup to spoof another email address? If not, can it be done with sendmail on Solaris? :) Cheers James ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
