Oh another thing to watch out is that sendmail (default) listens only to 127.0.0.1 to connect...
search your sendmail.cf for 127.0.0.1 and you'll probably find it.. I can't rememeber what I did but it had to be remarked or changed.. thanks, George Vieira Systems Manager Citadel Computer Systems P/L -----Original Message----- From: Nicholas O'Donnell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2002 1:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SLUG] Sendmail woes I have sendmail installed out-of-the-box with redhat 7.2 (with updates) but I cannot get it to recieve mail from another host other than doing echo blah | mail username I can recieve mail from the machine without any problems once I have mail in the spool, but getting the mail into the spool from the outside world is the problem Any help much appreciated Nick -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
