Hai,

I am trying to run sendmail on a RH 8 machine. My default hostname was wooly.com. When I tried sending mail to local users after configuring the sendmail it wasn't working. After I removed of the .com from the /etc/sysconfig/network file it started working. But my lpd crashed and it never restarts due to bad host name. Can anyone help on this.

One thing I noticed is that the messages I had tried sending after adding the .com is send after I remove the .com andrestart the system. That means the message are stored somewhere and then send when the name is changed.

Regards

Jitz
