Two entirely separate things you are seeing in that error mesg. Relaying Denied - You have to make sure that sendmail knows your IP(s) are allowed to relay. For example, in a LAN setting - assuming 192.168.1.0/24 should relay through your sendmail # vi /etc/mail/access 192.168.1 RELAY # note a tab between the two, not spaces :wq # makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db < /etc/mail/access -- Suresh Ramasubramanian <----> mallet <at> efn dot org EMail Sturmbannfuhrer, Lower Middle Class Unix Sysadmin [Linux One Stanza Tip] From : <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LOST #121 -**< Sub : Colourful Prompts >**- Put this in your .bashrc / .bash_profile For Root : PS1='\[\e[22m\e[40m\e[41m\]\h:\w\$\[\e[22m\e[40m\e[37m\] ' For an User: PS1='\[\e[22m\e[40m\e[32m\]\u@\h:\w\$\[\e[22m\e[40m\e[37m\] ' _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas - http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm?source=osdntextlink _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
