hello,

i am having problems with sendmail when i am trying to restart it. this morning i woke up and found it not working and when i tried restarting it belched out these errors at me.

[root@dusty init.d]# ./sendmail start
Starting sendmail: 451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 91: fileclass: cannot open '/etc/mail/local-host-names': Group writable directory
451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 588: fileclass: cannot open '/etc/mail/trusted-users': Group writable directory
                                                           [FAILED]
this is what the sendmail.cf file says at line 91:
# file containing names of hosts for which we receive email
Fw/etc/mail/local-host-names

and also at line 588:
# this is equivalent to setting class "t"
Ft/etc/mail/trusted-users
Troot
Tdaemon
Tuucp

now what am i missing.
i am using centos 4.2  x86_64

thanks




Steven
