Hi,
Having problem instructing sendmail to read from mailertable.
Here is what my /etc/sendmail.cf reads
Kmailertable hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable
Then in /etc/mail/ I have
ls /etc/mail/mailertable*
/etc/mail/mailertable
/etc/mail/mailertable.db
Further in my /etc/mail/mailertable I have
abc.com esmtp:mail.abc.com
I have re-hashed it (read later why not dbm format) and
I still see sendmail is using DNS mx records, yielding errors.
My understanding was mailertable should override what DNS says so
mush as routing is concern.
What Rule-sets do I run to check this out...
As for why not dbm, when I run 'makemap dbm' I get an error message
from makemap(1) saying that dbm is not supported in this version.
So why did NetBSD Gods include that as the default in sendmail.cf
is beyond me.
Thanks
