Solaris中hostname引起的sendmail错误

bungee

                               
Jul  7 02:14:00 solaris sendmail[454]: [ID 702911 mail.crit] My unqualified host name (solaris) unknown; sleeping for retry
Jul  7 02:14:01 solaris sendmail[456]: [ID 702911 mail.crit] My unqualified host name (solaris) unknown; sleeping for retry
Jul  7 02:15:01 solaris sendmail[454]: [ID 702911 mail.alert] unable to qualify my own domain name (solaris) -- using short name
Jul  7 02:15:01 solaris sendmail[456]: [ID 702911 mail.alert] unable to qualify my own domain name (solaris) -- using short name
上面是syslog中的sendmail的错误信息，从log中可以看出错误的原因是hostname和domainname的问题。由于sendmail默认先查找fully qualified hostname，从而得到domainname。但我设置hostname为solaris，sendmail没法得到完整主机名，只能使用solaris这个短主机名。这就是上面日志的出错信息的含义。
　　知道出错的原因，就知道如何解决问题的方法。在solaris中，我们只需修改/etc/hosts文件，加上完整主机名就可以了。例如，我原来的/etc/hosts文件内容如下：
::1                     localhost
127.0.0.1         localhost
192.168.11.11 solaris loghost
修改成：
::1                     localhost
127.0.0.1         localhost
192.168.11.11 solaris solaris.localhost.localdomain  loghost
这样，solaris中的sendmail就不会出现上述错误。我们可以用sendmail命令查看是否成功：
% /usr/lib/sendmail -d0.1 -bt
-d0.1是debug的等级，-bt是地址测试，Version 8.14.1+Sun

另外，我们还可以用以下的脚本进行测试：
/usr/lib/mail/sh/check-hostname
修改前：
Hostname solaris could not be fully qualified.
We recommend changing the /etc/hosts entry:
192.168.11.11 solaris loghost
to:
192.168.180.10 solaris solaris.localhost.localdomain loghost
修改后：
Hostname solaris OK: fully qualified as solaris.localhost.localdomain
