Hi all, I just upgraded my system from RH 7.3 to RH 8.0 couple days ago. I also compiled a custom kernel (2.4.19) to be used with RH 8.0. My problem is that everytime I do a restart/reboot, during the loading of sendmail and sm-client, it will take an unusually longer time (2-3 minutes) just for both of them but that the loading process returns no error, both sendmail and sm-client give [OK] status. I am not sure if this is caused by the custom kernel or upgrading from RH 7.3 to RH 8.0 or anything else such as a particular misconfiguration. Thanks for any help provided. Alimin
