Sorry to use the URGENT but I'm really stuck. I just upgraded
moe.setinc.com from linux 1.1.50 to 1.2.13, everything came up
OK but sendmail keeps aborting, the error in syslog is

problem creating SMTP socket
NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root) getrequests: cannot bind: address already in use

The system I am posting this from is running 1.2.13 fine and sendmail
on it (apparantly) works.

If anyone has any ideas please email me immediatly to rubin@shemp.setinc.com

Thanks...

Comment the SMTP line out of /etc/inetd.conf.

It sounds like something is starting a sendmail daemon (or other daemon)
on port 25. Perhaps you are trying to restart sendmail? Look in 

	/etc/rc.d/rc.M

to make sure a mail process has not already been started.
