Package: sendmail-bin
Version: 8.13.8-1
Severity: normal

Hi All

After an update today of my sendmail packages I got an error in my
mail.log after sending mail [following is slightly edited for posting]:

----------------------------
Aug 31 17:54:32 debby1-6 sm-mta[349]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root):
mci_lock_host: cannot create host lock file
/var/lib/sendmail/host_status/net./[deleted]./mail: Group writable directory
----------------------------

After changing the permissions of /var/lib/sendmail
from this one:
drwxrws--x 3 smmta smmsp 4096 Aug 31 19:05 /var/lib/sendmail/

to that:
drwxr-s--x 3 smmta smmsp 4096 Aug 31 19:05 /var/lib/sendmail/

the error seems to be gone.

I hope I did not break my dear old sendmail by that ... :)

Thanks for your work

Best Regards
Wolfgang
