I've been noticing that various Solaris patch bundles have been updating
sendmail and replacing the sendmail.cf file. This is a pain because we have a
smart host set up and it gets altered. What I want to do is put an entry in
/etc/hosts for the "mailhost" but I'm not sure what the entry expands to.
Entry from sendmail.cf:
DSmailhost$?m.$m$.
In my /etc/hosts:
xx.xx.xx.xx mailhost mailhost.internal.domain.com fred
The company has a machine with a DNS entry of mailhost.internal.domain.com but
I want this to go to a department smart host and not the company one. My
nsswitch.conf has: "hosts files dns" but if I use "sendmail -v" to test it
goes via the company mailhost and not to the address I want. If I force
"DSfred" then it goes out to the depart smart host.
Anyone able to help here?
