Is sendmail running on the box?
Mine is on a RHEL3 box. Simply tell sendmail that emails for your domain go
to your exchange server in the milertable and it should work.
Add a line like below to the mailertable. (/etc/mail/mailertable on RHEL)
mydomain.com smtp:exchange.mydomain.com
Then you can restart sendmail and test.
Can you send from the command line?
do this...(substituting for your email address)
# echo "test" | mail -s "Test email" user-90c1f137ed48@xymon.invalid
check sendmails log to see what is happening.

Hello:
I have limited experience with Linux but I am trying.
I have set up Xymon on both a Debian system and on a server running Ubuntu.
The main part of the program works great. The information I am getting on
the webpage is working fine.
I am having trouble with sending alerts.
I have setup a false alarm in Xymon so one server always appears down.
In /var/log/hobbit/notifcations.log it appears the alert emails are being
sent.
In my domain I have a separate Windows server running Exchange.
When I use the mail or mailx on the Linux servers emails are sent to
addresses in my domain and to the gmail account specified in
hobbits-alerts.cfg.
Yet no alerts or emails from Xymon. Any suggestions?
Sincerely, G Filter
