I need help configuring sendmail. I am using SunSparc with 4.0.3c. I think I have sendmail 4.0 Here is my configuration ---- Ethernet --+----------------------+ | | -----+-------| -------|-------- | sun server | | my machine | | (mailhost) | | sendmail.sub | |------------- -------+-------- | | phone line | -------+--------- | UUCP node | ----------------- NOTE: Mailhost doesn't know the UUCP node. Now I have installed sendmail.subs on my machine and added CV uucpname I also added the uucpname under /etc/uucp/L.sys, and created C.uucpnode and D.uucpnode directories under /var/spool/uucp Now the problem/question: 1. I can send mail to UUCP node only from my machine. I am not able to send mail from other machine (say the mailhost) by using mymachine!uucpnode!user or user%uucpnode@mymachine why ? (the error is something like uux -1) 2. I am not able to send mail from my UUCP node to the outside It gives me unknown error code uux -1 Any help .... please Thanks --Budi

(the error is something like uux -1) where is the error generated, if on the local machine then your uucp mail is not reaching the host with the modem put in an S0 that states R$*.$*.UUCP $#ether $@modem_host$:$1@$2.UUCP that punts all UUCP mail to the machine with the modem via the ether. > >2. I am not able to send mail from my UUCP node to the outside > It gives me unknown error code uux -1 your uucp node should be able to reach the outside using modem_host!user@host.domain and thus forwarding the mail to the host with a modem which should handle the mail from there. _________________________________ Lance R.
