Sendmail 8.12 Connection refused by localhost
I loaded a spare machine with RH 8.0 and found the problem has something to do with when the hostname is changed. I thought I changed everything you meantion with no go. I will go back through your replies and see if I did miss something and hopefully that will fix my problem.- dslnut01

Sendmail 8.12 Connection refused by localhost
Thanks for the responce RhythmAce. I tried everything you meantioned and I am still getting the same error. I loaded RH 7.2 on an old machine and didn't have any problems with running sendmail locally, but Redhat 8.0 doesn't seem to be working for me. Could I be missing something else?- dslnut01
