[ILUG] RH 7.2 firewall and sendmail

[Reilly, John]

By default in Redhat, sendmail only listens on 127.0.0.1.

Not sure what to change in m4 files, but its 

O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA

in the sendmail.cf  Add copy and paste, adding as many of them as you need
with the appropriate IP address to bind to.

Cheers,
jr
