Hi, > Agreed, -bd is not mandatory. One could run Sendmail out of inetd > using -bs or hide it behind Obtuse Systems Smtpd (smtpd) port, which > implements a Qmail-like or postfix-like approach using Sendmail. or you could tell sendmail to listen on lo0 only. In other words, start it with -bd -oOA=127.0.0.1. Which results in: tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.25 *.* LISTEN If you want sendmail to listen on more interfaces, add more -oOA options. /s/Udo -- "The only reasonable alternative we can come up with is to close off the Internet to America Online users until they have passed an entrance test. But that would break federal laws that prohibit discrimination against the intellectually challenged." - hhahn@boardwatch.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
