This sounds like a resolver issue. One usually finds localhost defined
in /etc/hosts. Does Solaris not provide that entry?

I recommend putting this in sendmail.mc, which is compiled with m4 to
become sendmail.cf. Does the m4 divert macro used to place the rules in
sendmail.mc need to change to move the rules to an earlier section?

Good catch. This is where package-based installations work well, as a
DRAC package would not install if a prerequisite library were not
present. You would have found out about this problem when you installed
DRAC.

I suspect it's hard for a configure script to guess *why* a particular
library is failing to work. That's why it prints the detailed error
info, so you can take it from there.
