So if I understand correctly, if sendmail is running
in daemonmode, there is no threat from this particular
security problem? How can I verify that it is in
daemonmode on my systems? We are not using mail
except for a few system generated messages to myself
or the DBA. I have been reading the sendmail FAQ and
my AIX books but am not finding anything that
addresses that topic so far. TIA.
