/var/log/messsages shows no errors...which is even more confusing.

Subject: Sendmail problems...urgent! Please help!
Hi all. I've setup Sendmail on Linux before, but I am having major
problems doing so on FreeBSD. I tried to install the new version of
Sendmail...and I now nothing works. The startup script for it runs, and
I can see 3 sendmail jobs ("sendmail: Queue runner@number for
/var/spool/client"), but when I do a netstat -an, it doesn't show that
it's listening on port 25. Here is exactly what I did:
Moved /usr/share/sendmail to /usr/share/sendmail.old
Ran /usr/ports/mail/sendmail/make then make install
Added the line it tells you to rc.conf
Updated /etc/mailer.conf as per the directions
Went to /etc/mail and editied local-host-names file to reflect my
system, and did the same with access Typed make in /etc/mail Ran the
startup script
I've tried re-making in the /etc/mail directory several times to no
avail. I tried killing the inetd process, thinking it was holding the
port. Can someone please help? I've been going for about 6 hours w/o
mail now.
Thanks,
--Brian
