My main server has no problem, but this box takes a long time starting sendmail. Here are the related config files and ect for the box it is slow on. The only difference is a this one has a few less services enabled on it than server and the server has actual nameservers configured. This box uses a dns proxy/cache on the server for dns. Any ideas? /etc/hosts ::1 localhost localhost. 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost. /etc/nsswitch.conf group: nis files hosts: nis files dns networks: files passwd: nis [unavail=continue] files shells: nis files ypcat of hosts 192.168.0.3 fennec fennec. 192.168.0.2 vixen42 vixen42. /etc/resolve.conf nameserver 192.168.0.2 /etc/rc.conf defaultrouter="192.168.0.1" hostname="fennec" ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" inetd_enable="YES" linux_enable="YES" moused_enable="YES" nfs_client_enable="YES" nfs_server_enable="YES" sshd_enable="YES" usbd_enable="NO" nis_client_enable="YES" rpcbind_enable="YES" nisdomainname="Vulpes" inetd_enable="YES" #lpd_enable="YES"
