You do not have to run sendmail form xinetd or inetd for that matter in order to change the port it listens on. You just have to change DaemonPortOptions in sendmail.cf and restart sendmail. Noah.

Yes my firewall is masqueraded. Actually I already put the domain name on /etc/mail/relay-domains but it is not work.
And after your email I put also the name of the firewall and its ip address, and voila it works. Thanks for your suggestion Holger.
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?
TIA medwin
