Hi. Just getting my site on the net this month. I am trying to get the sendmail.cf file set correctly so I can do proper routing. I am using the sysadmin utility on the Tek 6130 box I have and have tried just about every combination of known domain and local domain names I can think of. Has anyone ever gotten this to work. My configuration is quite simple. I am running BSD 4.2 (a minor Tektronix variant) and am hooked up over modem to several other uucp only sites. My problem is that I can only seem to get mail working (somewhat) when I set the Local Domain to 'unknown.' Anything else, and sendmail chokes telling me that the entire address I specifed is the host name and there is no specified destination. I would leave it as 'unknown,' but all my mail and news goes in and out with lucifer.unknown. I'm sure this is going to foul me up somewhere. Anyway, I would appreciate any help you can give me.
