<0> hi guy's I had this written down somewhere but I seem to have lost it ....I am trying to remember what section I edit of the .cf file to enable smarthost ?
<0> can someone just tell me what the section is called and I will search for it
<1> Is it safe to ***ume that I can bind sendmail to 127.0.0.1 to tighten up security, and everything else on *same* box will still be able to use it?
<1> Or is that a foolish though and my lack of understanding how sendmail works is blinding me?
<2> binding to 127.0.0.1 (or ::1) is a common way to restrict access to a services ...



<1> Indeed. Trying to find how to do so. No luck thus far. slamd64 10.2b w/ 2.6.16.2
<1> Don't see anything in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.
<3> DAEMON_OPTIONS in sendmail.mc
<1> Nor in man.
<1> Ah yes, .bc.
<1> Oops .mc
<1> hmm, no sendmail.mc
<1> Just .cf
<1> There's this line....
<1> #O ClientPortOptions=Family=inet, Address=0.0.0.0
<1> For # SMTP Client Options.
<1> or....
<1> # override connection address (for testing)
<1> #O ConnectOnlyTo=0.0.0.0
<1> hmm
<1> Ah, found an example on google. Which happens to be a DAEMON_OPTIONS in sendmail.mc example. Tnx peeps.
<1> Perfect
<4> When setting up sendmail, does one need to specify aliases, such as "brad@example.com brad" or should sendmail automatically understand that brad@example.com should go to local user brad's mailbox?
<3> no need to set aliases for that



<4> Okay, and one more question. I've been able to get sendmail to send mail to external hosts like gmail, etc... However, I cannot get it to accept mail. Is this because of an MX record issue? Or because I haven't added any hosts to the sendmail local-host-names config file?
<3> birdfish: do you see anything in the mail log?
<3> birdfish: maybe your sendmail is bound to localhost only
<4> I'm really new to Unix
<4> freeBSD to be exact
<3> then see into your syslog daemon config to where the facility mail goes
<3> logs are usually located in /var/log/
<4> Okay :)
<3> read them with less or tail
<4> the maillog?
<3> is a good bet
<4> To tell you the truth, I can't understand what it's telling me in there. :P
<4> Looks somewhat like a lot of variables where ***igned
<5> hi folks.. is anyone here using sendmail on a debian installation?
<5> the reason I ask is that I had a working SMTP-AUTH configuration on FreeBSD, but even with all the bits in the right places, it doesn't seem to work on debian, and #debian doesn't seem to be much help.
<4> Okay, I've got sendmail set up so that it is accepting mail to user@fqhostname and user@virthostname, but I can't get it to accept mail at user@birdfish.us without a subdomain
<4> I've added birdfish.us to local-host-names also
<4> But it doesn't seem to get delivered :/ Any ideas?
<6> how to sendmail + cyrus-imapd ?
