Ok, I seem to be having a problem with sendmail 8.11.0 on a server
that does not have DNS. We relay the mail to a server that does have
DNS. In the past we would just set up a service.switch file and make
the necessary changes to the sendmail.cf file. However now that 8.11.0
is being shipped with Sco Openserver 5.0.7 this does not seem to be
working. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Works fine for us.

O ServiceSwitchFile=/path/to/service.switch
OI-DNSRCH (also known as 'O ResolverOptions=-DNSRCH')

And you should be good to go.

Make sure that the service.switch has enough permissions (including the
parent tree) for sendmail to access it.

Yeah thats what I did, exactly by the tech article (TA#107669) and it
has worked for me many different times in the past with no problems.
However I now have 2 sites that I'm having the same problem with. And
I've had this working with the exact same version of OS and sendmail,
but something must have changed because like I said I now have 2 sites
experiencing this problem now.
