I have an FC6 Linux box that I have just installed PHP Nuke on..

 

It has been a while since I admin'ed a linux box and I guess I am rusty on how to set up Sendmail.

 

No NET mail is getting in or out of my Server and the MailLog shows this:

Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong?

 

 

Thanx

Have you got Sendmail listening on all interfaces, by default sendmail will only listen on 127.0.0.1

I think so, lemme look...

 

Well, I can't seem to locate the proper line in the Sendmail.cf

 

Where would I look for that info??

 

Thanx for the reply..

Hi,

 

I dont think you edit the sendmail.cf manually you have to edit the sendmail.mc file as the sendmail.mc file is then converted into the

sendmail.cf file.

 

I would suggest you have a read of;
