I was wondering if anyone had this problem.
I upgraded a test box with the sendmail patches from up2date. Worked fine,
I then up2dated the production server and sendmail refused to start again. I rebuilt the config and tried to restart, nothing, errored out on invalid switch on sm-client. and would not do anything after that. I rebooted and Postfix came up!! I was thinking to myself is it quicker to configure Postfix on the fly ( no experience ) or reinstall sendmail from the cd.
So with the boss mumbling something behind me as he paces back and forth watching my fingers fly at 200 wpm invoking all sorts of command line incantations; thinking to myself hmm... hmm... am I fired yet. So I reinstalled sendmail from the cd and copied over the /etc/mail with a back up and in a stroke of the wrist, fixed... except the 10 minuets that our 1500 customers couldn't send email.
So back to my point anyone have this happen with the sendmail patches?
or
Did I just do something wrong ( to have postfix start up without the option for sendmail) ?
Perhaps inadvertently removed sendmail?
