Check /etc/resolv.conf and ensure the DNS is defined and operational

Check /etc/mail/sendmail.cf for FQDN that is not being resolved

Check /etc/host for local definitions.

The major hangs on boot is typically DNS related so that's where you could start…

Just my 2 cents… good luck!!!

This is usually indicative of your DNS not operating properly.  Sendmail and it's client tend to want DNS running so it can resolve addresses.

Subject: [App_rpt-users] ACID boot hang

Any idea why an otherwise perfectly operating system running the ACID distro would hang
while booting for:

sendmail - approx 6 min
sm-client - approx 3 min

They both eventually load (green "OK") but it just makes booting take somewhere south of 10 minutes.
The started when I loaded the latest distro (as of about 3 weeks ago). Any clues or advice
on what details I could add other than what's below?

Thanks,
