Re: sendmail delay in presenting banner

This is probably being caused by DNS timeout trying to reverse-lookup
the connecting IP.  Check that your resolver (/etc/resolv.conf) is set
correctly and responding to e.g. +ACI-dig -x +AFs-IP-address+AF0AIg queries in a
timely manner.  If you are using DHCP, note that /etc/resolv.conf may
be automatically created by the network setup scripts so manual edits
may not +ACI-stick+ACI.

Bart,

Thanks for your help.  It smells like a DNS problem to me as well in
particular I can fix the problem with a statement in the access file
like

Connect:10.0.0.186                          RELAY


When I checked reverse look up using 'dig -x +AFs-ip+AF0 I am not having any
problems, and /etc/resolv.conf on the mail server is set where it is
supposed to be 127.0.0.1 +ADs I have also tried pointing this to other dns
servers, and I get the same problem.  I have expanded the log file entry
to : 

define(+AGA-confLOG+AF8-LEVEL', +AGA-29')dnl

But this does not give me any more information other than there is a
clear delay between the time of connecting and the time the sendmail
banner is produced by the mail server.   I am also not seeing any
problem in the named.log file.
