Add the addresses you will allow relaying from in /etc/mail/ip_allow.
If you have a whole class c, then the first three octets will work. If for
instance you owned the whole class c 192.168.1.0/24, you would put
192.168.1 in /etc/mail/ip_allow and any mail coming in to the smtp port
from those addresses would be allowed relay privileges.
If the sendmail-cf rpm isn't on your machine, download it from the net
or CD, and install it, (it won't change anything on your system). And read
the file /usr/lib/sendmail-cf/README.check, check out the web-site
mentioned in the file and it will answer most of your questions.
