Guess I shoulda examined a full "locate sendmail". :) The doc is the ASCII version. I've only seen the Postscript version before. The "missing help files" (under /usr/src/contrib/sendmail) include FAQ KNOWNBUGS README RELEASE_NOTES src/README src/SECURITY src/TRACEFLAGS src/TUNING > swear> Why isn't "::1.in-addr.arpa." built into the resolver (or something) > swear> like "1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa." seems to be?

Thanks for the tip. Please excuse my sarcasm; your tip really was helpful in leading me to investigate /etc/named/* and then to the handbook to learn what make-localhost was about. -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
