Anyway, in 7.3 I use an antivirus daemon to protect smtp ( I still have client using W$$$$ws). I give the port 25 to the antivirus and move the sendmail to another port. It is possible because smtp was running through inetd.
Is it possible to use xinetd for sendmail in 9.0 and move the smtp (sendmail) to another port? Anyone here have experienced?
I do not know about xinetd but you could start sendmail by rc-files and leave it running (it is less cost intensive). To change the port, you could change /etc/sendmail.cf by inserting this line: O DaemonPortOptions=Port=<port number wanted> Equally, you can change the item SENDMAIL_ARGS in the /etc/sysconfig editor (YaST) by adding: -ODaemonPortOptions=Port=<prot number wanted> I hope this helps. -- _/_/_/_/_/ _/_/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ Mit freundlichen Grüßen _/ _/ _/ Tielbürger Datentechnik GmbH _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ Dipl.-Math.
