tba@sirius.UUCP (Todd Aubin) (11/01/88)
I have just started reading this news group. Can anyone tell me what the purpose of this news group is? Is the sendmail.cf file mentioned in various articles the same as the one employed in the Sun Microsystem's Unix? (I think it might be since the Sun mailer is based on the Berkeley Unix mailer.) With this assumption in mind, I ask the following question: I have dozens of workstations in house which route mail through a node called 'sirius', which is my mailhost and uucp/usenet gateway to Dartmouth. When I am on my workstation, called neptune, I can send mail over uucp, no problem. But when my mail is received by the person addressed in the letter, I want the header to read "...!dartvax!sirius!tba", not "...!dartvax!sirius!neptune!tba". Everyone with an account on our network has a yellow page alias which aliases that person to "persion@sirius", and all workstations have mounted /usr/spool/mail via NFS, so if someone replies to "...!dartvax!sirius!tba", I will get it on my machine "neptune". How can I modify sendmail.cf to hide my network? I think that it is done with the macros in the sendmail.cf, but the Sun documentation is V_E_R_Y limited. Thanks in advance to anyone that replies. todd aubin -- Todd Aubin @ Northern Telecom ..!dartvax!sirius!tba
