    Can you email from the master server using mailx to the recipients? If not, you will need to get your Solaris Admins to configure sendmail.

To add to revaroo's post:

This is how I do it:

Add the IP address of your Exchange/mail server in /etc/hosts:

xxx.xx.xx.xx   hostname         mailhost

Create /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver xxx.xx.xx.xx
domain your.domain

Add 'dns' to the 'hosts' line in /etc/nsswitch.conf
hosts:      files       dns

You should now be able to use 'mailx' at O/S level.
Once this is working, NBU notification will work as well.
