Hi Chuck, Yeah, Sendmail can be a bear to configure for SMTP-AUTH. Fortunately, if you have recent versions of RedHat with both the SASL and Sendmail RPMs installed, then you're all set. I think you need at least Red Hat 7.2 for this to be the case. Darrell Shandrow - Shandrow Communications! Technology consultant/instructor, network/systems administrator! A+, CCNA, Network+!
