# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSsbserd04.sbif.gov.ve
We need another change????

Hi:

Enabling the DS macro should do it.

Hi, in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf DS, setting your smtp server

DS

After making changes:

# /sbin/init.d/sendmail stop
# /sbin/init.d/sendmail start

Make sure that DNS is set correctly (see /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf)

Buena suerte..!!!

Vicbur,

-Add the smtp server with the DS string in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file:

# cat /etc/mail/sendmail.cf | grep ^DS

Example: DS10.120.5.1 #[where 10.120.5.1 is mail server ip]

- /usr/bin/killsm
- # cd /sbin/init.d ; ./sendmail start

- You can now send a sample mail and chek
# echo "Sample mail" | mailx -s "Test mail" youremail@domain.com

Hth,
Raj.
