RE: [SOLVED] Sendmail relay configuration - RHEL 3.0



Title: Message
Glad you've got it working. However, ultimately, you created a workaround for a broken DNS configuration which you should try to resolve.

Subject: [SOLVED] Sendmail relay configuration - RHEL 3.0

Hi.

 

The solution to my problem was quite simple in the end. I only had to create the /etc/mail/service.switch file with the following content:

 

    hosts files

    aliases files

 

This way, sendmail doesn't try to resolve the email addresses using the DNS, so I don't even need to configure the DNS client.

 

Tu sum up, I had to take the following steps:

 

-          Include the ip of the mailhost in the /etc/hosts file.

-          Edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file, modify the SMART_HOST line and create the new sendmail.cf.

-          Edit the /etc/mail/submit.mc file, modify the last line, and create the new submit.cf .

-          Create the /etc/mail/service.switch file.

-          Restart sendmail.

 

I hope this helps other people with the same problem.

 

Regards,
