how bout: service sendmail start
or: /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail start that assumes you installed the mandrake sendmail packages,, or a redhat set I guess... if you compiled it yourself, fraid you are on your own.. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 31 October 2001 3:39 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [newbie] sendmail Hello I installed sendmail on my Mandrake distro and wanted to test it with 'telnet localhost 25' but got the message: Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Verbindungsaufbau abgelehnt Okay, no problem, I first have to start it of course. So let's go in linuxconf under 'system' 'control-panel' 'services' and start sendmail. But, o shit, there is no sendmail listed ? Help, any idea how to start sendmail and let in appear in the control-panel? Regards Yvan -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net
