	Hmm. I don't quite understand that -- I think I just had my
 machine set up as 127.0.0.2 or something (I could also have used
 192.168.1.10 or something). I had /etc/hosts set up with that -- and
 said order hosts,bind in /etc/host.conf. 

	I had sendmail working for me as far back as I remember (like
 linux 0.98.XX) -- and I just got a static IP address late last year.

	No, unfortunately, the script does not deal with all cases. It
 did deal with my dynamic IP, though, by (I think( ignoring the issue:
 I dont't think sendmail.cf knows about it now. Nope, sendmail.cf does

	I fail to understand the problems you had, but in my case, I
 have never had a problem with sendmail.
