Config: (W95 PCs, each running Eudora, FreeBSD set up to dial-on-demand to the ISP) Now everything is working, but there's one innefficient thing happening: Every time one of the users tries to "send" mail using Eudora, (i.e. each time there's an incomming mail message to sendmail on port 25) the server dials the ISP, forcing the client to wait. This happens even before the server recieves the addess header (i.e. whether or not the mail message needs to be routed via the ISP to the outside world) Any suggestions as to how I could get sendmail to STOP what ever its doing (perhaps a DNS lookup?) each time it gets an incomming connection? <><=====================================================><> Michael Doyle phone: +353-1-661-0588 Network Administrator http://indigo.ie/~coopnth/ Co-Operation North E-mail: relyod@co-operation-north.ie (0ffice) relyod@indigo.ie (Personal) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
