Hi, I have a new installed OpenSuse 10.1 and problems with my sendmail. It can not open sockets, but it seems not to be a problem with the "file" permissions. The mail server is part of a HPUX controlled NIS. I have attached the log from sendmail an the permission of sockets. Has anybody an idea, what the problem is? I have searched the Internet, but nothing related found.
