I wasn't going to comment, although over the years I've seen times when network on-line isn't sufficient, but a practical alternative may be to drop in a NetworkManager script in dispatcher.d that restarts sendmail after an appropriate DHCP step. If you look in /usr/lib/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d there is already a 10-sendmail script, which restarts it on internface up or down, but you can maybe modify it with something from 20-chrony-dhcp, which also tests for "dhcp4-change" and "dhcp6-change". > > Barry > Regards Frank -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
