- We've recently acquired a DRS3000 running DRS/NX and I'm trying to
- implement mail as per the instructions in Appendix E of the System
- Administrator's Guide. Quoting from page E-8 (no, that's not a smiley)
-
- > 2. The list of machines that will accept SMTP mail is specified
- > by the netdird service. See netdird(1M) in the System
- > Administrator's Reference Manual to see how to add services
- > to this database.
-
- There is no such netdird man page in my SAR manual :-( Have other
- DRS/NX users noticed this problem? We want to send mail over the
- Internet via TCP/IP. Unless I've missed something, the SAR manual
- seems to have failed me, and I'm now stuck.
-
- How does one get over this step? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
