Hello Mike,
I have the similar situation as yours, I am still waiting for help...... regards, Hailong >Hello there, > >I have posted here before with this problem and thought I had it fixed... >guess not. I am still being told that my mail server is an open relay. So, >here is what I have done: > >I used linuxconf to set up relaying for my two networks. Then, through >linuxconf, I regenerated the sendmail.cf file. Last but not least, I >'activate changes' and even restart the box so sendmail gets a fresh start. >Still an open relay... > >Upon further investigation (and some previous advice from this list), I >found that linuxconf may be buggy and I should manually edit the >sendmail.mc file and regenerate the sendmail.cf file with m4... the problem >is that I don't know which line to edit to allow my two networks to >send/receive email nor do I know what the proper line should say! As an >experimental workaround, I tried setting up the relaying with linuxconf and >then regenerating the sendmail.cf file with m4- but then I was not able to >send mail from my local network! So I had to go back and do it all using >linuxconf... I'm still an open relay, but at least I can send/receive >locally again. > >Also, while I was looking around (btw, I "inherited" this box, I didn't set >it up!) I noticed that there are multiple sendmail.mc files in a few >different directories. That seemed odd to me, so I typed: > >rpm -q sendmail > >and got back: > >sendmail 8.9.3-10 > 8.11.2-14 > >Does that mean there are two versions of sendmail installed? Is that a >problem? Should I uninstall the 8.9.3-10 version and if so, how? If not, >then which sendmail.mc file should I edit? And when I edit the correct >file, is there any reason why I wouldnt be able to edit it with PICO, and >then regenerate with m4? > >Geez, this has become a real mess... any help you could offer would be >greatly appreciated! > >Frustrated- > >Mike > > > >_______________________________________________ >Seawolf-list mailing list >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list > _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
