Why are we allowing the people at mydomain.com (MyInternet Services in Seattle) access to sendmail, while blocking the currently-non-existant d00d.org and spamnest.org from various services? I think it would make sense to have "sample" entries commented out (the addition of ALL : ALL : allow at the top is not quite the same). It may also make sense to use reserved domains like example.com. -- Christopher Masto Senior Network Monkey NetMonger Communications chris@netmonger.net info@netmonger.net http://www.netmonger.net Free yourself, free your machine, free the daemon -- http://www.freebsd.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
