Basic Sendmail question

[Marc Dufresne]

This is what I had to modify in my sendmail.cf file on FreeBSD 5.4:

Search "sendmail.cf" for:

#SMTP daemon options
O DaemonPortOptions=Name=IPv4, Family=inet, addr=<place your ip address
to listen on>

i.e.

O DaemonPortOptions=Name=IPv4, Family=inet, addr=24.34.56.23

Restart sendmail. You should see it listen on the correct IP.

Hi,

My sendmail system will not accept mail from anything other than
localhost.

I have tried to telnet onto port 25 from a workstation and it does not

connact but if I try from the server it does.

What have I missed?
