Sendmail 8.7.5 & Sol 2.4 woes

2007-12-25 10:29:00

Thanks to the following people who responded:

Claus Assmann ca@informatik.uni-kiel.de

Ian MacPhedran Ian_MacPhedran@engr.USask.Ca

Stuart Kendrick sbk@fhcrc.org

I had to configure the hosts line of /etc/nsswitch.conf to

query dns:

hosts: nis dns [NOTFOUND=return] files

                ^^^ add dns to this line

To test MX resolution:

/usr/lib/sendmail -bt

ADDRESS TEST MODE (ruleset 3 NOT automatically invoked)

Enter <ruleset> <address>

> /mx aol.com

My thanks to Ian who pointed me in the right direction

on both counts.

As always, this group is a real lifesaver.
