Just installed FreeBSD 5.3, all seems to be working except the error from sendmail. I can ping the mail server in the domain that I am trying to send the mail. But the mail gets send to my " /var/spool/mqueue" directory. The error is "host name lookup failure".
Configure /etc/resolv.conf with working nameservers, and then flush the queue of stuck mail.
I want to put this system on line as production system soon. On last thing "syslogd" does not put out any logs under "var/logs". Any ideas, I have been looking in FreeBSD archives.
I would try restarting syslogd using the -d flag and use "logger -p kern.warn" to test it. Perhaps your /etc/syslog.conf file is not formatted correctly. Oh, you might need to touch any new logfiles you want to log to, if they do not already exist.
