I ise debian lenny on both server and nodes. Nodes are in sence of drbl drbl project.
So, my sendmail on server works well but on nodes in syslog i see:
Code:
Jun 16 22:41:13 node007 sm-msp-queue[2399]: o5FKf2gC002224: to=postmaster, delay=23:59:41, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=952882, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]
Configuration of sendmail on server and nodes is same and it is:
Code:

# This file is used to configure Sendmail for use with Debian systems.

# If you modify this file, you will have to regenerate /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

# * make (or make -C /etc/mail)
# * sendmailconfig
# * m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
# The first two options are preferred as they will also update other files
# that depend upon the contents of this file.

A few differences:
in nodes there is no dns at all. dnsdomainname returns empty string. /etc/hosts on nodes is kind of:
192.168.73.8 node007
for host node007.
