next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Environment: 3 BSD servers. 1 Acting as email server. 2 others doing various things. 2 of the servers (including my email server) started out 4.3-stable and have been upgraded since. All are now 4.6-stable. 1 (the one I am having issues with) is a fresh install of 4.6-stable I set sendmail_enable and sendmail_submit_enable to NO in rc.conf on all my servers for security reasons. All but the one in question are still able to send email fine, using a command such as: Mail blah@blah.com from the scripts. I have some scripts that will email me when certain events occur. When the server with the fresh install of BSD tries to send email out, I get the following: EOT noc@kulish.com... Connecting to localhost.kulish.com. via relay... noc@kulish.com... Deferred: Connection refused by localhost.kulish.com. If sendmail is enabled in the rc.conf, it sends email fine (obviously). If I telnet from this server and drive the MTA manually, everything works fine. What I cannot figure out is where to change whatever setting it is so that this new box can do the same. I checked /usr/src/updating and didn't come up with much (which isn't surprising, I not that familiar with sendmail, I use exim on my main email server). Am I missing something obvious here? Most of my post-installation setup is done via script, and I hate to have this odd-ball server sitting there. Thanks for any help and if you need more info, LMK Chris K.
