I'm using FreeBSD 2.0 off the walnut creek cd Right now i have a unix box unix.flnet.com set up to recieve mail, and my provider has the mx records setup so that mail for flnet.com and cyberstation.flnet.com (same machine) are also sent to unix.flnet.com now what i need is for the mail going to flnet.com to be queued for uucp delivery. Whenever i try to send something to whover@flnet.com it comes back with user unknown. i guess because its still trying to deliver it locally to the unix.flnet.com machine. heres my .mc file ive tried a number of different things, using a mailertable, using smart_host. and i always get the same include (`../m4/cf.m4')dnl VERSIONID... OSTYPE (bsd4.4')dnl Cwflnet.com define(`confDOMAIN_NAME', `$w.$m'))dnl FEATURE('nodns') FEATURE(mailertable, dbm /etc/mailertable) EXPOSED_USER(`postmaster hostmaster webmaster') MAILER(local) MAILER(smtp) MAILER(uucp) my mailertable flnet.com uucp-dom:flnet made with makemap dbm mailertable < mailertable i also did this with the hash way neither seemed to work then thought maybe i needed to add the following becaue of the MX record LOCAL_RULE_0 R$+ < @ flnet.com > $#uucp $@ flnet $: $1 i added this right after the MAILER(local) and tried differnet variations too Im begining to get myself more confused then anything since it seems none of these work. im makeing my .cf file by m4 flnet.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf im i missing something ??? thougth maybe i had to add something like 204.176.215.10 flnet.com flnet to my /etc/hosts file that didnt work either, do i ned anything like that? mail goes out fine from uucp to unix.flnet.com and out via smtp but the incoming for flnet.com is whats screwed up. id appreciate anything you can do to clue me in, since i havent been able to provide mail to people on flnet.com since the system went up David McCluskey mcluskey@cxc1.msu.edu captbly@unix.flnet.com --- not reliable
