Hey all, bit of sendmail newbie here.

I have my sendmail server listening for external mail, my sendmail.cf:

# SMTP daemon options
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=192.168.1.100, Name=MTA

I changed it from 127.0.0.1 to 192.168.1.100 so I could listen for
external mail and it works fine.

But my LogWatch emails are not comming through now and I see:

jBH0CIxs030054: to=kd(a)netnerd.ca, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=57738, relay=[127.0.0.1]
[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by
[127.0.0.1]

I can telnet to 192.168.1.100 25 fine, but 127.0.0.1 25 is connection
refused.

Any suggestion how I can listen on both?
Thanks all.

Specify *both* IP interfaces in *.mc file you use to generate sendmail.cf
and recompile it.

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA-local')dnl
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=192.168.1.100, Name=MTA-public')dnl

....or simply do not specify any, as suggested in sendmail.mc

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA-local')dnl

Or even simpler:



I.e. don't put in a DAEMON_OPTIONS() line at all if you don't have some
particular reason to do so. None of the sample .mc files shipped with
the sendmail distribution have one.
