A reboot is not necessary for Sendmail changes. For unknown reasons, mail started to be "refused" from my mailserver just as I was heading out this afternoon. It may have been a bad DHCP lease, ?? Anyway, a make restart and other reinitializations didn't seem to work, so my next guess is that I didn't restart my maps, databases correctly. If I ever have enough courage to test these theories in the next 95 years, I'll know. Meanwhile, I've got to beg help from some REAL system admins here. Postfix looks worth trying, but like I said, iff a wizard is handcuffed to the nearest chair:) gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
