When you check /ec/rc.d/rc5.d are there links for sendmail, etc If either or both are true then sendmail should be started at run level 5. I would be interested in what you found when you did those two things. -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@trinity.edu -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
