sendmail

Hi,

my boot process hangs on "configuring syscons: blanktime."
I have read a lot of similar threads, but its still a problem for me -.-

my rc.conf:
Code:
# Enable network daemons for user convenience.
# Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

keyboard="/dev/ukbd0"
moused_port="/dev/psm0"
#sendmail_enable="YES"

usbd_enable="YES"
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
fusefs_enable="YES"

font8x8="iso02-8x8"
font8x14="iso02-8x14"
font8x16="iso02-8x16"
scrnmap="NO"
keymap="hu.iso2.102keys"

# -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Sun Aug 22 16:03:43 2010
ifconfig_re0="inet 192.168.1.111  netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="192.168.1.1"
hostname="qpai.bsd.hu"

my hosts:
Code:
::1                     localhost localhost.bsd.hu
127.0.0.1               localhost localhost.bsd.hu
192.168.1.111           qpai.bsd.hu

my resolv.conf:
Code:
domain  bsd.hu
nameserver      192.168.1.1

my hostname is : "qpai.bsd.hu"
my domain name is : "bsd.hu"
I'm using a router with the fallowing IP: "192.168.1.1"
I have dynamic PPPoE

I have tried a lot of modifications with /etc/hosts to make sendmail work, but I could not solve it.

Thanks in advance,
qpai

What version of FreeBSD?

It should not be necessary to set the keyboard and mouse devices, they should Just Work(tm). Also usbd went away after FreeBSD 6 or so.

You have sendmail_enable commented out. Are you saying you still have a delay on startup even without enabling sendmail?
 
Its FreeBSD 8.1

Thank you for those observations, I commented those lines and everything works the same.
I have freshly upgraded system, however this problem occured before the upgrade too.
(I used ctrl+c mostly to kill sendmail)

Without sendmail (sendmail_enable="NONE"), of course not.
That line remained from my previous attempts to solve the problem.
 
I see nothing doubtful during the boot process.
My /var/log/maillog contains these lines: (backed it up, empty it, then reboot)

Code:
Aug 23 00:28:58 qpai sm-mta[962]: starting daemon (8.14.4): SMTP+queueing@00:30:00
Aug 23 00:29:13 qpai sm-msp-queue[1041]: starting daemon (8.14.4): queueing@00:30:00
 
Well, I rebuilt my kernel without INAT6 and everything smooth now.

However ... this method looks a little bit radical for me.
Does ipv6 important?

Err, ITYM "INET6". No, unless you need it, running without IPv6 should be fine.

But I think this might also explain the error: you had no IPv6 address for "qpai.bsd.hu" in /etc/hosts.
