Becky asked about sending email from LM servers Thyme.� She's getting an error while trying to send email to Cheesedog.� Error is 'sender is not ok' .� I setup sendmail on those systems earlier in the week.

At first I thought Cheesedog's name was misspelled but then I read the error again.� Sender not ok means that Cheesedog's return address was the .com address while the domain of thyme was the .net address.� I just have to add the domain in the /etc/mail/access file.

localhost�� OK

localhost.localdomain�� OK

127.0.0.1�� OK

blahblabhblah.com�� OK

Then restart sendmail. It will rehash that file to access.db which will tell sendmail they're OK to relay.

About Me: Little Plastic Castle is an extension of This Child's Life which is not hosted at inboxjournal. This blog will make little sense to anyone other than myself. It's a stream of consciousness log of what I do on a daily basis in my job as a UNIX computer systems engineer. o/~ "They say goldfish have no memory, I guess their lives are much like mine...so the little plastic castle is a surprise every time, and its hard to say if they're happy, but they don't seem much to mind." o/~ I endeavor to respect confidentiality and thus I use nicknames for the people I work with. (Mr. T, Ratface, Jerry, Cartman, Grandpa Simpson, Slick, and so on.) I drop system names in here and abbreviations, but any note that requires something like a FQDN will always be marked private. You can comment if you like, but I'll only respond if I feel like it.

Interests: Cast of Characters: Just a few of the names I use for people, this is the nickname and what their job responsibility is.
