sendmail cant start & not detect smtp

[farid_lmu]

hello

I installed webmin and its working nicely. My target is to configure the sendmail server from webmin. I already installed sendmail from fedora 10 package. When I write /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail to start the sendmail in command mode than the following problem happens:

[root@localhost farid]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail start

Starting sendmail: 451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 87: fileclass: cannot open '/etc/mail/local-host-names': World writable directory
451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 594: fileclass: cannot open '/etc/mail/trusted-users': World writable directory

Once again I realize that the sendmail cant detect the smtp(25) port though I already unchecked in firewall this port.

could anyone please give me any idea/suggestions in here, though I didn't configure anything in sendmail here.

hi

did you install webmin alongside another control panel, or is this vps from a webmin template of sprys?
