How to configure sendmail with relay without dns in 11.11

Hi,

I have configured sendmail in one server 11.11.
I want to change relay to send the mails only with domain.com, but now the mails outs with server.domain.com.
At nsswitch.conf I have
hosts files dns
but I cannot change it.

How could I do this?
Thanks,
Carmen.

Hi Carmen

What is your relay server? is it hp-ux or MS exchange server?

Hi,

vi /etc/hosts
put FQDN of the MS xchange server
server.domain.com

Make sure you can ping server.domain.com

uncomment the DS macro in sendmail.cf
vi /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
DSserver.domain.com


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

Check for any errors in /var/adm/syslog/mail.log file

Hi again

configure macro in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
- DS to DSexchange_relay_name
- configure macro Dj$w. to Dj$w.
- put to /etc/hosts of your exchange server FQDN.

before that allow your hp-pux host in MS exchange server to relay mail.

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

chek its working or not

#echo test|sendmail -v carmen@domain.com

Hope this will help!

Hi,

It does not works ok.

I have at sendmail.cf on serverA

DSserver-exchange
Dj$w.domain.com

and when I send one mail it shows me

carmen@serverA.domain.com and I would like that it shows carmen@domain.com

Any idea??
Thanks!
Carmen.
