[rancid] Re: Issues with Sendmail using Rancid

[Joel Krauska]

Look at the code.

I had a similar problem..
I had to explicitly reference /usr/sbin/sendmail.
(/usr/sbin wasn't in the path for the rancid user I set up)

Type 'which sendmail' to figure out where you sendmail binary is and then try replacing the 5 lines in control_rancid that have "sendmail" with "/usr/sbin/sendmail"..
(or whatever 'which' tells you)
