I am trying to get Sendmail on my gateway to relay all incoming mail to = a=20 machine within the internal 192.168.20.0 net and so I am using the = MAILHUB=20 option of sendmail. but sendmail complains about dns lookup failed whenever I try to relay = to the=20 machine dummy.ournet.com even if its listed in the /etc/hosts file. OK, = I=20 thought, perhaps we need a service switch file, so my = /etc/service.switch=20 file looks like: hosts hosts dns and still the same error.. what can I do to make sendmail recognize = internal=20 names ( I will still need external names (dns) because I want to be able = to=20 send mail out on the net, so disabling the dns alltogether isnt an = option. I=20 have tried looking in the sendmail FAQ, and yes.. I have looked and = looked in=20 the bat-book from O'Reilly ).. Please help me, I am going nuts. ;-) Thomas Uhrfelt thomas.uhrfelt@plymovent.se Computer Technician PlymoVent AB F=F6reningsgatan 37 211 52 Malmoe Sweden http://www.plymovent.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
