very persistent sendmail (?)
hi..
in my freebsd 4.6 rc.conf's file i have stated the following lines to
prevent sendmail from starting during boot:
sendmail_enable="NO"
sendmail_submit_enable="NO"
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO"
however, when i reboot the machine the following line show up when i view
the list of all active processes (ps x):
sendmail: Queue runner@00:30:00 for /var/spool/mqueue
after a wile (few days or so, haven't really timed it),
/var/spool/clientmailqueue is filled to the max causing the machine to
crash! (full file system)
i've searched and tried various methods, but i can't seem to fully disable
sendmail's
functionallities on the machine? is it impossible to do so? do certain
processes depend on sendmail or parts of it?
hope someone can help, tia,
