Muegel) Followup-To: comp.sys.apollo Organization: Motorola Inc., Ft. Worth, Tx Lines: 32 There has been much talk about sendmail of late in comp.sys.apollo. I had been looking to replace Apollo's bogus sendmail with a current version so I decided to take the plunge. All seems to work great on my SR10.2 DN3500. It accepts SMTP connections fine even when I touture tested it from another host. On our SR10.3 DSP3500 mail gateway, where I really need it, it has problems. It accepts connections and delivers the mail but it retuns the following message to the sender about 90% of the time: ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 451 endmailer mail: wait: No child processes 554 ... Internal error Cecking the node I see it has very few processes running (< 25) and so it has definetly not reached the process limit. The version of IDA sendmail is 5.65+IDA-1.4.2. They are both using the SAME sendmail.cf so I know that is not the problem. I also tried versions of sendmail compiled locally on the SR10.3 node and one on the SR10.2 node. Nada! Any ideas? -Mike -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Mike Muegel | Internet: mmuegel@mot.com | | Software Tools Group | UUCP: uunet!motcid!muegel | | Fort Worth Research & Development Center | Voice: (817) 232-6129 | | Cellular Infrastructure Group | Fax: (817) 232-6081 | | Radio Telephone and Systems Group | Mail: 5555 North Beach St. | | Motorola, Inc. | Fort Worth, TX 76137 | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
