sendmail is trying to identify the FQDN ie why it's
waiting if u want to avoid starting sendmail while booting
use
chkconfig --level 35 sendmail off


if u want to change the settings permanently in the
sendmail configuration file
edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and regenerate the
sendmail.cf file.. but i dont know which option go
with the sendmail.mc


i am not a sendmail expert

so sendmail gurus please comment.

well i have a question now
can we edit the
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
and add Dj$w.{your-domain}..


to avoid sendmail hanging for a while when booting..
is that the right way.. ?

This is called hi-jacking a thread Anish, and frowned upon. You need to start a new thread if you want to ask a question.


In regards to your question, yes you can edit the sendmail.cf.

In regards to your other question - no, it is not the generally accepted way.

Have a look at sendmail.org for configuration examples to see what you should be using, but if you don't understand, let me know (in a new thread!!!), and I will try to help you out further.

Regards,
Ed.
