On Sat, 25 Dec 1999, it was written: >Is there anyway to force sendmail not to cause a dialup connection at >bootup time? I just enabled automatic startup of PPP in rc.conf and the >boot process hangs until a connection is made. Exactly my case - but i put ppp -auto AFTER sendmail start... and it hangs for a while. The solution is - put the name of you local host in /etc/hosts, to escape DNS lookup. P.S. Such cases easily can be examinated via ktrace utility. --------------- Alex Derevyanko.
