Full Version: FBSD 5.4-RELEASE, Sendmail freezing for 60 seconds on ANY command.

Poof
I'm having an issue where if I attempt to send a message through sendmail it takes a good 60 seconds before the attempt appears on my maillog, also, in the time that I attempt to send it and it appears, sendmail just 'halts' the program calling it.

And, by any command I mean...

Sending an email... Good 60 seconds...

Running mailq -qL ... Good 60 seconds...
Running sendmail -q ... Good 60 seconds...

STARTING Sendmail... Good 5+ minutes.

Anybody got a clue here? It's getting REALLY annoying. Also, this happens on the base install.

My hosts file is as follows:
::1 localhost.mydomain localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.mydomain localhost
1.2.3.4 my.server.com my
10.10.0.1 tunnelstart.mydomain tunnelstart
10.10.0.2 tunnelend.mydomain tunnelend

resolv.conf:
order hosts,bind
domain mydomain
nameserver 1.2.3.4
nameserver 1.2.3.5

Yes, I did change my IPs and mydomain = full realdomain.com

Thanks, any ideas are greatly appreaciated. I've been googling this since last night to no avail.

First I would look more deeply into DNS stuff. Maybe there are problems with resolving hostnames, your domain name etc.
