Err... I dunno. If the script is there in init.d, then I'd assume it's safe and there's nothing wrong with it. Then it's probably also in chkconfig (chkconfig --list sendmail) and you could also use:
service sendmail restart to do the same thing; also safely. I'll check once I get back to my server. -- Rodolfo J. Paiz rpaiz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
