- I'm having difficulty with sending mail and news from my home machine.
- My news and mail feed is working perfectly; that is, I get anything
- sent from the internet nodes I have accounts on, but I can't send
- anything out. (It used to work, then I upgraded something - I don't
- know what- and it broke).
-
- I've installed the latest SLS smail.tpz as well as a series of older
- versions.
-
- The /usr/spool/smail/msglog entry for each failed mail try is like this:
- Xdefer: <srcsip!bergstro> reason: (ERR_127) router uucp_neighbors:
- command `/usr/bin/uuname` returned exit status EX_256
-
- I've looked through the source for uuname and it explicitly returns a
- 0 and the experiments I've tried with just the shell (/usr/bin/uuname;
- echo $?) bear that out.
-
- It appears that the smail sources are a mess, but I'll try to get them
- compiled.
-
- Has anyone solved this already? I'm at the point where I'll have to
- backup all my config information and scripts and reinstall from
- scratch.
-
- Thanks,
- Pete
