Hi list,
first i want to give thanks to the many respons for my previous post. Im
getting more and more confident with solaris

My next task is to setup sendmail on a solaris 8 box on my network.
i have put in a entry in /etc/host
ip    hostname mailhost

i have put in my name server in /etc/resolv.conf like this
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domainname myweb.dk
nameserver 192.9.200.1

Still i cannot use mailx like this

echo test | mailx -s "test" shj at pee.dk

The messages file gives me this error
May 30 11:57:40 ptsweb sendmail[17075]: [ID 702911 mail.alert] unable to
qualify my own domain name (myweb) -- using short name

What have i missed out here

Kind regards
