i got a vps running fedora core 9
i use it to host my site , i got 2 problems
first one being that sendmail is only listenning
on localhost (i want it to listen globally so webmaster@domain.com emailing would be possible),which
brings me the 2nd , how do i set it to accept emails
that are for webmaster@domain and forward em to another
address? , i wouldnt say im a total linux noob
but im not an expert either so please make it simple
so basically i wanna set sendmail to listen globally
and not just on localhost and that it will allow
relaying to webmaster@domain and forward it to another
address and of course still allow all relays from localhost
like it already does , please help , thx in advance

Look in your sendmail.mc and you'll see a line that starts with "DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1". Comment it out the M4 way by putting "dnl # " in front of it. Now regenerate your sendmail.cf by changing into the /etc/mail directory and running 'make all' or 'm4 sendmail.mc > sendmail.cf' or with some distributions restarting the SysV initscript will work.


Create an unprivileged user account, for example "markovick". Now add a line "webmaster: markovick" in /etc/(mail/)aliases. Now run 'newaliases' (or 'sendmail -bi') to make it stick and test it.
