"Q3.22 -- How do I configure sendmail not to use DNS?....."With versions 8.8
and later, you change the service switch file to omit "DNS"
and use only NIS, files, and other map types as appropriate. More
information
about the service switch file can be found under the ServiceSwitchFile
option
in �5.6 (Options) of the Installation and Operation Guide and all of �4.9
(Name Server Access). "
i've read the faq and also the relevant article but i cant figure out what
to do in my /etc/mail/service.switch to prevent sendmail from taking long
time to execute sendmai -q command.I want to use the smarthost facility to
send mail from my system with a temporary dialup connection.do i just remove
the word dns from the second line?
my /etc/mail/service.switch file looks like this
#passwd files
hosts files dns
aliases files
#passwd files nis
#hosts files nis dns
#aliases files nis
#passwd files nisplus nis
#hosts files nisplus nis dns
#aliases files nisplus nis
