[comp.unix.ultrix] sendmail doesn't find uucp sites

heasif@SHUM.HUJI.AC.IL (Yehiel Greenbaum) (05/23/91)

Our Decstation does not want to send UUCP mail.  UUCP works to the
sites, but sendmail insists that it cannot reach them.  It prints
the message next to the R$*<@$~Z.UUCP$* rule (something like Site
xxx is not connected to yyy via uucp).

I refroze (sendmail -bz) as root.  I even took it down to single
user and refroze (it says so somewhere, although I don't know
why).  Didn't help.

Anyone have an idea what to do now?

The class Z referrred to in your article should equate to the names
of the systems in the L.sys file (/var/uucp/L.sys)

1. Make sure that the line FZ....  1) correctly points to an existing
file and 2) is not commented out.

2. If that doesn't work you can try commenting out the ~Z line
you mentioned.
