Sendmail

When I used service sendmail start I got:
[root at bob ~]# service sendmail start
Starting sendmail: 554 5.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 39: unknown
configurati
on line "
        adnl #"
554 5.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 40: unknown configuration line
"needs to"
FAILED]
[root at bob ~]#

And when I use make -c /etc/mail I get the last bit of the usage.

Why's this??? :D

Cheers,

make -C /etc/mail

or

service sendmail restart

should be sufficient - either have to be done as root. You might want to
check /var/log/messages and /var/log/maillog afterwards to see if any
errors are reported.
