Make sure that > /etc/hosts has a localhost entry and an entry for the hostname. Yes, sure. The /etc/hosts contains: 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.1 tiiu 192.168.0.2 mari 194.126.98.135 solaris.matti.ee solaris /etc/host.conf: hosts bind /etc/service.switch: hosts files I have two computers, the new one named tiiu and an old 486 named mari which is almost all the time down. I haven't specified the domain part in the rc.conf for hostname, but I have tried it too with no difference. The network interface is up on the tiiu all the time but shows no carrier. I guess it doesn't matter is it up or not. I have "ppp -auto me" running. It's really very simple setup, practically one computer linked to internet over partial-time dynamic ppp. The solaris entry in the hosts file is the SMART host for sendmail, I'm getting all the mail over POP3 from the same host. Delivery mode is deferred. I have no clue why sendmail does DNS lookup when told not to do so. Weird. Any additional thoughts?
