This message was relayed to the monitoring system from syslog: sendmail[15922]: k0N7oYh15922: to=dfv, delay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=0, dsn=5.1.1, stat=User unknown
Jan 23 08:50:34 hostname sendmail[15922]: k0N7oYh15922: k0N7oYi15922: DSN: User unknown

Next the system didnt recognise any commands issued by root and completely locked itself up. I had to reboot the system to get it running again.

specs: IBM,7026-B80, AIX5.2 ML2,sendmail v8.11 and running oracle 8.17

The system hasnt kept any logs on the issue for some odd reason, either in errpt or syslog.
Neither does the system run any tasks at the specific time of the malfunction.

anyone have a clue on where to start looking? or (hopefully) a solution?
thnx,
Michelle
