Bob -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Configuring E-mail Services on a Standalone Wkst Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2004 21:59:51 -0500 From: Bob Perry To: FreeBSD-Questions References: <400A3A0A.5040708@earthlink.net> <20040120205402.GA13848@zi025.glhnet.mhn.de> Been trying to set up e-mail services on my workstation. I started by opening the freebsd.mc file to edit the define line for Dialup users, entered the appropriate mail server name, saved the file and rebuilt it. I ran the sendmail -q command and got the following error message: su-2.05b# sendmail -q /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 66: unknown configuration line " " As I was logging out, there were also a number of messages on my screen..."line 66: unknown configuration line "\n" Line 66 is blank. Can anyone shed some light on this problem. My editor is vi. I've already posted this to the sendmail list and received several suggestions. However, the issue is still very much open and could be a FreeBSD/vi issue. (?) Thanks, Bob -- FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13 0# -- FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13 0#
