I've made a few changes recently: - Upgraded to FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE-p6 via source/makeworld - added the cyrus-sasl-1.5.27_3 port and enabled it with sendmail - added the gnome port and enabled xdm - ran /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade -ra with no errors The odd thing is that there is no real indication as to why sendmail doesn' t start at boot. Sendmail runs fine when I start it manually with /ete/mail/make start. It works perfectly and doesn't crash. The only sendmail-related errors I can find are: FROM /var/log/messages ---------------------- Jun 22 13:50:44 antsclimbtree sendmail[241]: KERBEROS_V4: can't access srvtab file /etc/srvtab: No such file or directory Jun 22 13:50:44 antsclimbtree sendmail[241]: add_plugin(/usr/local/lib/sasl/ libkerberos4.so) failed: generic failure (these errors occur when manually starting sendmail, but do not seem to adversely affect sendmail or sasl -- I'm not using kerberos) FROM dmesg ---------- Starting standard daemons: inetd cron sshd sendmail /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libmysqlclient.so.10" not found . Recovering vi editor sessions: /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libmysqlclient.so.10" not found (I don't see how the libmysqlclient error is related to sendmail, but it happens near the point where sendmail is apparently being started at boot, so I'm including it) That's all the evidence I can find. Again, sendmail appears to work just fine in general, so I'm guessing that something has changed in the boot process that I've missed. Any suggestions?
