Hi all: I'm having a sticky problem with sendmail. I just moved my workstation from my old job to my new job, and the hostname changed from "brashear.wellesley.edu" to "brashear.phys.appstate.edu". I've changed rc.local, hosts, networks, resolv.conf, and sendmail.cw to reflect the new IP address, router, nameservers, and hostname. I'm running sendmail v8.9.0. Networking on the machine seems to work fine, but if I send email from a remote machine to brashear, it goes into the queue but is never delivered to the user. If I try to send mail from one user to another on brashear, using mail -v username, sendmail hangs at the "Connecting to local..." message. I've tried rebuilding sendmail, and commenting out the Fw line in /etc/sendmail.cf, all to no avail. I'm sure this is something simple that I am missing (mail worked fine before the move), but I just can't find it. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks in advance! Cheers, --Lee R.
