ronald-ann2 and rosebud2 have the standard decmips cron job
42 * * * * sleep `echo $ADDR | awk -F. '{ print $4 * 13 }' `; /usr/lib/sendmail -q
and don't have the 7.7M patch to /etc/rc that reads
/etc/athena/rc.conf to get ADDR into cron's environment.
I think the best solution is to comment out the cron job, since (I
think) we don't send mail from ronald-ann2 or rosebud2, and it's seems
best not to have sendmail run at all on machines that don't need it.
If someone was planning to send mail from these machines (mail about
afs outages, maybe?) I'll make the change to /etc/rc instead.
(btw, hodge also has that cron job without ADDR in cron's path, yaz is
running 7.7M, and charon and rtfm don't run that cron job at all.)
