I am learning pls verify
1. lssrs -a |grep sendmail # to see if running through startsrc via
rc.tcpip
2. ps -ef |grep sendmail # if running as command
3. netstat -a|grep smtp # if running vis inetd

Please help me .. I want to rule out if sendmail is running on any
server...

probably want to grep -v on inoperative

probably want this one to be:

ps -ef |grep "sendmail -bd'', just in case somebody has outgoing
email

> 3. netstat -a|grep smtp # if running vis inetd

also :
ps -eadf | grep send

might return something like:

root 21716 22204 0 Mar 27 - 0:00 sendmail: accepting
connections
