Man resolv.conf doesn't say anything about how to do that, and it's never been necessary. I might add that I *think* this behavior began when I upgraded to 4.8-p4. I don't remember it doing this in -p3. BTW, I should add that I have not touched any configuration for sendmail. I have need only for sendmail to send the daily reports to a user account on the same machine, and I check that account via popa3d from my XP box. > > On Wednesday 03 September 2003 09:32 am, Charles Howse wrote: > > Hi, > > When I boot, I get what I assume are timeouts when loading sendmail. > > > > Sendmail_submit > > My unqualified hostname (larry) unknown; sleeping for retry > > Unable to qualify my hostname, using short name > > > > Sendmail-clientmqueue > > My unqualified hostname (larry) unknown; sleeping for retry > > Unable to qualify my hostname, using short name > > > > How can I make these go away? > > Here is my /etc/rc.conf > > > > # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Tue Aug 12 07:29:34 2003 > > # Created: Tue Aug 12 07:29:34 2003 > > # Enable network daemons for user convenience. > > # Please make all changes to this file, not to > /etc/defaults/rc.conf. > > # This file now contains just the overrides from > /etc/defaults/rc.conf. > > defaultrouter="192.168.254.254" > > hostname="larry" > > ifconfig_tx0="inet 192.168.254.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" > > kern_securelevel_enable="NO" > > linux_enable="NO" > > moused_enable="NO" > > moused_type="NO" > > nfs_reserved_port_only="YES" > > saver="daemon" > > sendmail_enable="NO" > > sshd_enable="NO" > > usbd_enable="NO" > > ntpdate_enable="YES" > > ntpdate_flags="time.nist.gov" > > xntpd_enable="YES" > > syslogd_enable="YES" > > syslogd_flags="-ss" > > clear_tmp_enable="YES" > > inetd_flags="-wW -a 192.168.254.3" > > > > > > Thanks, > > Charles > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
