well i restarted with a fresh minimal container, added sendmail first, sending mail worked, added nagios, and it still works. looking back at the first one, where i had started rsyslog, i now find in maillog: 2010-07-26T00:41:42.146641-05:00 214 sendmail[3298]: o6Q5fg1A003298: from=root, size=208, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, relay=r...@localhost 2010-07-26T00:41:42.149326-05:00 214 sendmail[3298]: o6Q5fg1A003298: [email protected], ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30208, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] i still wonder why. mystery to me. tho i'm happy to have it working in the rebuilt one. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
