sendmail init error: Can't assign requested address
A laptop running 6-STABLE is connected to the Internet thru a DSL modem-router doing NAT. It gets a dynamic local IP (fairly recurring 192.168.1.33) at every boot. Of course there is no FQDN for this host. Lately (after a sendmail upgrade?) init shows some oddities: /etc/rc: DEBUG: checkyesno: sendmail_submit_enable is set to YES. /etc/rc: DEBUG: run_rc_command: evaluating /usr/sbin/sendmail -L sm-mta -bd -q30 m -ODaemonPortOptions=Addr=localhost().

But it starts without delays and can send/receive mail (even internet mail, wow!). I chose .localhost to qualify the hostname because the notion of "public" domain name is where I get lost. Can I pick any word as TLD/SLD to operate in a private LAN? Is there any standard, anything like the CIDR blocks reserved for private networks? Researchs led me to RFC 2606, alternative DNS roots, and the like, but I couldn't distill any practical advice. Which will be the interactions if I choose e.g. .somedomain.com? Now if I send a mail to the internet, it has a From field ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) unusable to reply to; if this was [EMAIL PROTECTED] it could fake some real mail address. These are questions for the sake of correcteness. I rather won't get into the arcanes of sendmail, but as it is part of base and used for admin purposes, would like to set it up properly. As for the real email stuff, will be dealt from the GUI some day; but there is always the chance of a guy playing with the CLI. > > and locally run your own DNS server to serve for that domain, and to > forward DNS requests for all other domains.

Honestly, I don't understand what each of this four daemons is supposed to do. I just want the minimal working sendmail config in a NATed host, the /etc/defaults/rc.conf reads as your sample, and init says sendmail_outbound_enable is set to NO, which seems odd but dunno the consequences. > > I chose .localhost to qualify the hostname because the notion of > > "public" > > domain name is where I get lost.

Cool. Tried .local and works too. Looks like sendmail is happy with finding 'dot anything' after the hostname. So far, my problem is fixed. But the init behavior for unqualified hostnames is less than optimal: having to wait one minute until sendmail agrees --and it finally agrees-- is annoying; and this happens for every sendmail daemon launch. As more end-users using PCs without FQDN jump to FreeBSD this could be more heard of.

AFAIK, there are two possible explanations: 1) There _is_ a .login_conf.db file in the other user's homedir. 2) The other account pertains to a different login class than yours, which already sets the desired locale and so masquerades the user's settings being ignored. Dunno if a user can see his own login class. If you have permissions, can use vipw to find out (if unfamiliar, take a look to vipw(8) and passwd(5) manpages, notice the 'class' field).

And your test also discards some login script directly setting the variables
(assuming bill locale is usually se_SE). Wish some day we get enlightened.

nvidia-driver segmentation fault
To celebrate te Xorg upgrade I got rid of all ports installed in my system, then did a fresh install. No problems building; well, I installed first gnome-lite expecting it would pull the complete xorg meta-port and finally had to install this to get all the stuff, but suppose this is harmless. Now, the sad history: I can run X apps with the nv driver, but the nvidia-driver fails.

The first command was just to show that with the nv driver X didn't hang, while the second command, using nvidia driver, caused a segmentation fault. I suppose this error means I will not have OpenGL under the nv driver, but there are other drawbacks of using these instead of the nvidia driver, so I don't care. For instance, with the nv driver I get the desktop at most at 1/4 the maximum available resolution. Thanks anyway.

Sorry, in my previous answer didn't edit the subject.
