From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; T312461) Description of problem: /etc/init.d/sendmail ignores the DAEMON-variable set in /etc/sysconfig/sendmail. It is hard-scripted to always run with the "-bd" argument. Red Hat 8.0: --- daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd \ $([ -n "$QUEUE" ] && echo -q$QUEUE) --- Snatched from RH7.0: --- daemon /usr/sbin/sendmail $([ "$DAEMON" = yes ] && echo -bd) \ $([ -n "$QUEUE" ] && echo -q$QUEUE) --- I do not want the daemon-mode on this particular machine, thus I want only to flush the queue every now and then. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set "DAEMON=no" in /etc/sysconfig/sendmail 2. # service sendmail restart 3. Verify that the daemon is listening to tcp/25 inspite of the config. Additional info:
