UPDATE and still could use some help on this:
It looks like I had an issue with my sendmail.cf file.
BEGIN:
# date | ./sendmail -Am -v andrews@statenet.com
Warning: .cf file is out of date: sendmail 8.12.11 supports version 10, .cf
file is version 0
root... aliased to root@statenet.com...
I have replaced the /etc/mail/aliases file with the original from the install. stopped and started sendmail again, and still seeing the following on sending mail:
# May 13 10:49:35 vala sendmail[4825]: [ID 801593 mail.alert] i4DHnZWe004825: Losing ./qfi4DHnZWe004825: savemail panic
im way...
No complaints from running 'sendmail -bv postmaster'
appreciate the input again too sir, im New(er) to Unix and new to sendmail all together. I have been building and working closely with sendmail for going on 3 weeks now *cheers*...and im understanding it for the most part. at least the...
the only reference to Postmaster is the following line:
MAILER-DAEMON: postmaster
close to the top of the aliases file. I took this aliases file from our current mail server, and put it onto the new test mail server instead of re-creating it.
%^*^#@$%@%, could I have damaged something by...
Had already done that, and verified that they were both ok:

Good afternoon,
wondering if anyone here has seen or know what would cause this.
sending mail was working fine last week on this new test machine im building to become our new mail server. I could send to both outside and inside my domain (cant get mail to come from outside, or from a user...
I apologize, had a few fires that had to get put out over here. I am not familiar with the 'smart relay' looking it up now. i see some 'smarthost' lines in the .cf file, but i am UNFAMILIAR with this. Can you give me a little more information as to what this is, as well as, in my .mc file...
Good afternoon all, I am very happy to see this forum here, and, having used the Veritas Backup Exec forum before, have seen from experience that you all are quite smart and very helpful. Thank you in advance for your time and patience in this problem, i am NEW to sendmail and not-so-new to...
UPDATE:
I checked and didnt have the remote agent licence installed on the main backup server, so i got that installed, and then tried to add the remote agent to the 2k server that i need to backup, and now im getting a different error:
"attempting to connect to server \\(server) failed...
Good afternoon all, well here we go again, backups have been running fine, now i want to throw another kink in my backup schedule, and its causing a problem, that im not sure where to look for the answer.
Backup exec 9.1 running on win2k server. backing up locally fine, now i want to add a...
Thank you bro, if you look further in the threads, you will see a thread labeled 'SQLbill you may be my only hope'
this went back and forth for a day or so and I was able to get all my issues worked out. thank you so much though for taking the time to respond to this problem. turned out that...
QUICK UPDATE:
Thank you all for the help. Got this whole thing rolling. Once i had reinventoried and quick erased the DLT's and put them into scratch media. I ran the backup again, and this time specified the Media Pool to use. Spanned cartridge to cartridge, backed up all 110GB and workd...
excellent,
thank you SO MUCH for the dummy-walkthrough *smile*,, sometimes we all need that, and even though ive worked with backup exec off and on since V7, this library is a NEW thing to me, and so much has changed in these last two versions, i feel like im learning this product all over...
Ok, (really trying to do this right the first time)
i went through and did quick erase on all the tapes (had just done a full erase on them oh, last week), after erase, i did a inventory. all tapes are scratch media now (10). two curious things before i move on:
1.) the single tape that was...
thank you sir, i too apologize, been in meetings myself...nothing like monday meet.....*smile*
i am going to cancel the current job, take all the tapes out, put them back in, format the one that is full of my partial backup job, import them, inventory them, then add them to th media pool, THEN...
I am sure i can do the same thing with 9.1, however, since i FORMATTED all the tapes that i put into the library, in essence (and correct me if i am wrong) that free(d) them up to be writable from the get-go.
so im unsure what or why doing an inventory on them would be important. not trying to...
