Re: f10 beta sendmail boot delay

["cornel panceac" <cpanceac@xxxxxxxxx>]

ronald warsow told me that a test for sendmail config is:

sendmail -d0 < /dev/null

indeed, in my case the output was incomplete, it has no fqdn there.
however, fixing /etc/hosts did not solve the problem. i searched deeper and i've found the problem in /etc/sysconfig/network
fixing the latter file fixed sendmail start even if /etc/hosts was left unfixed.

thank you all for help.

The most likely reason is that somethig is misconfigured and
attempts by sendmail to find a host name are failing and you are
stuck on a timeout for that.  Adding a name you are searching
for to /etc/hosts would be one way to prevent this.

This was like that from "always".

Please have a look at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=464191

i suppose this is the problem, however, anaconda should check the validity of the user input, imho.

Thanks,
