Quit good a program. However, I get a lot of messages (email) from sendmail, stating: ## gethostbyaddr(IPv6:::1) failed: 1 ## gethostbyaddr(192.168.0.1) failed: 1 Q: waht can I do about these warnings? My (local) IPv4 is 192.168.11.22 My kernel supports IPv6 What's my IPv6 address? where do I put it? Or do I remove the IPv6 support from my kernel and make a new one? Where does sendmail takes its lookup of my v6 ip from? Can't find it in any .cf file. -- dick -- http://www.nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.8 ++ Debian GNU/Linux (Woody)
