The other box is running CC:mail, so obviously it's not running sendmail at all. > To make progress, you really need to find out which command is unreognised. > If this isnt being logged, you can stick a printf in sendmail to find it out. If you wind the debugging up far enough on sendmail it should tell you what's going on (if it doesn't fill /var first 8) try invoking sendmail with "-bd -q5m -d9999" as arguments for testing purposes. > Mailed using ELM on FreeBSD | Karl Strickland -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] My car has "demand start" - Terry Lambert [[
