mail.log not found
mail.log not found
i have HP-ux 11.00. and after sending one mail with the mailx command, when i try to see the logs of it in /var/adm/syslog/mail.log, it prompt an error that file not exist. and i checked there is no such file named mail.log in /var/adm/syslog. i try to search the file in my server with find command, but no such file found. so, i created one with the command :-
touch mail.log
it has the permissions as root:sys. but again, the logs are not getting created in it. plwase suggest how can i get my mail.log file back.
Thanks

Re: mail.log not found
Having created the 'mail.log' do:
# kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/syslog.pid)

Re: mail.log not found
Re: mail.log not found
You would not get a mail.log file if sendmail was not running.
Check:
ps -ef | grep sendmail
netstat -an | grep ":25"
/etc/rc.config.d/mailsvrs
# To see if sendmail is enabled.
