Hello,
Where can I start looking to see why sendmail isn't accepting connections?
"netstat" show this:
# netstat -lpn |grep 25 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 26046/sendmail: acc
Thank you in advance.
Are you aware that this means it's only listening to localhost (the machine it's running on)? Did you expect it to receive mail from other machines? Check /etc/sysconfig/mail and make sure SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE is set to "yes" and if it isn't and have to change it, run SuSEconfig afterwards If you've made manual changes to sendmail's configuration (not using yast/suseconfig), this won't work though, you'll have to make this change manually as well
