Public service Unix since 1986. X-Of_Interest: Observing 18 years of service to the Unix community Subject: sendmail is reaching "tao" once more... X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2005 23:51:02 -0000 The reason that mail (and other connections) were "refused" from my primary nameserver to here had to do with a missing line in /etc/rc.conf. Could it be this??: defaultrouter="10.0.0.1" I had the DHCP ifconfig line set correctly. If it isn't the routing, perhaps it was that I had the sendmail_submit_enable turned off (="NO"). If anyone knows if either of this configuration lines are necessary, please do clue me in. I'd like this to be the *last* time I run into this issue. thanks, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
