In discussion on -stable, people have been trying to help me with a sendmail
issue. The effect is for sendmail to refuse to start, no matter what, and I
cannot use the Internet from that box.
(I am using webmail and Windoze - <sob> - to send this message)
One problem is that the version of sendmail and its .cf file are out of sync
and I don't know how to correct this.
There might be other problems I need to address.
Here is the output of two investigatory commands suggested by Claus. They took
AGES to complete (I went off to play patience while they ran!). Looks like the
second output waited for me to provide an answer about ruleset, then gave up
and gave me back my prompt (see last two lines).
Hope someone can help with this "mess". Thanks.
