HI,

Ok, a couple of days ago, Josh Tolbert told me to check out
his site for how 
to setup sendmail+SMTP AUTH+SSL/TLS.  So, I went to your
(Josh's) site and 
followed the directions.  Now however, sendmail doesn't even
want to start.  
Actually, more correctly, it doesn't want to stay running.

If I do: /etc/rc.d/sendmail start

sendmail starts and is actually listening on port 25 for all
of 30 seconds, 
then that section of sendmail dies.  Then, all I have is
this left over from 
the start of sendmail (gleened by doing "sockstat |
grep sendmail"):

smmsp    sendmail   5085  3  dgram  -> /var/run/log
root     sendmail   5082  4  dgram  -> /var/run/logpriv
root     sendmail   5082  6  tcp4   192.168.2.23:63862   
204.17.36.86:25

Doing "tail /var/log/maillog" yeilds this:

Other than the below lines my <hostname>.mc file is
unaltered.  These are the 
only lines I've added:  

dnl set SASL options
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5
LOGIN')dnl
#define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl
#TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl
#define(`CERT_DIR', `/etc/mail/certs')dnl
#define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl
#define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/whitbap_cert.pem')dnl
#define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/whitbap_cert.pem')dnl

#define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/whitbap_key.pem')dnl
#DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl
#DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA')dnl


The commented stuff is what I added from Josh's web site. 
The stuff above it 
is what I added following some other instructions a couple
of days ago.  I 
made these changes from the instructions in the handbook, 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO885
9-1/books/handbook/smtp-auth.html.  I 
uncommented them because before I made the changes to use
SSL, it (sendmail) 
worked.  Now it's not so I was trying to back the changes
out just to see if 
sendmail would work again, but it's not.  What is going on?
