So further experimentation shows the following:

1) If I remove the host name that the dhcp server assigns from the
'/etc/hosts' file, sendmail boots up with alacrity.  However, gnome
gives me that error message that it can't resolve the host name
'dhcppc1'.

What to do?

Subject: Sendmail loooooong pause on boot


Hi,

When I finally got X Windows running for the first time, I was
getting an error about the host name that my dhcp server was
providing being unknown.  Furthermore the error suggested that this
might cause internet problems.  As suggested, I put the hostname in
the /etc/hosts file, and Gnome boots up flawlessly now. 

Unfortunately a new side effect has begun happening; sendmail takes
forever to give me the '[OK]' on bootup.

Any suggestions?

Rob Yale
