hello,
I've a small LAN with a fedora core 3 (a machine called fedora3,
192.168.0.50, sendmail 8.13.1.2, dovecot
0.99.13-3) and a windows 2000 (a machine called zenone, 192.168.0.20)
I've not still configured DNS on fedora, but I've so edited /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.0.50 fedora3
192.168.0.20 zenone
I've made the same on windows and the 2 commands:
ping zenone
ping fedora3
works perfectly in both directions.
For the sendmail side, I've made the following changes on the /etc/mail files:
-added fedora3 on local-host-names
-dnl # DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl in
sendmail.mc
reloaded the daemon, the telnet fedora3 (and localhost) on port 25 & 110
(sendmail & dovecot) is OK but sendmail daemon is really slow starting.
giving the command
newaliases
from the shell sendmail tells me:
WARNING: local host name (fedora3) is not qualified; see cf/README: WHO AM I?
I've seen the README file (chapter WHO AM I?) but I've not understood good
the explication: what should I add to (I think) my sendmail.mc file?
thanks a lot in advance for your help,
fabiano
