Hi,

Did you restart sendmail ?

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

also are we certain the sendmail.cf file is correct for the version of sendmail you are using .... maybe an idea to attach a copy ....

[Geoff Wild]

You still need a nsswitch.conf file - just change it to "files" instead of NIS or DNS...

#
# /etc/nsswitch.files:
#
# An example file that could be copied over to /etc/nsswitch.conf; it
# does not use any name services.
#
passwd: files
group: files
hosts: files
services: files
networks: files
protocols: files
rpc: files
publickey: files
netgroup: files
automount: files
aliases: files
