Sendmail SMTP Auth problems (Was IP forwarding: ThanksMr.Burger/Mr. Stefan)

[Ved Linux]

My log files are:

I got user entry corrictly as in access with following :

#AuthInfo:other.dom "U:user" "I:user" "P:secret" "R:other.dom" "M:DIGEST-MD5"
#AuthInfo:more.dom "U:user" "P=c2VjcmV0"

My smart host is also correct.

The sendmail version is

Name        : sendmail                     Relocations: (not relocateable)

I wasn't interested in getting SMTP authentication to work, NV was, and 
adding a smarthost provider and entries to enable relaying wont help turn 
on the SMTP auth system, especially when the error is a DSN saying that 
the service was unavailable (relaying denied messages tend to be more 
specific - i.e - 550 Relay Denied - or there abouts.)

This is why I asked for the logs, as the logs should elebarate more as to 
_why_ the DSN responded with "service unavailable" which tends to indicate 
that an attempt to spawn a subprocess failed (i.e - a subprocess to check 
an SASL encrypted password)

NV : this is part of the confusion that is created when responding to a 
post with content that is completely unrelated to the original.
