Vanilla 4.2 BSD sendmail problem

[Jim Chappell]

We got the 4.2 BSD tapes last month and installed it on a DEC 11/780 per
the installation instructions.

Running mail I get the error message:

Socket: Protocol not supported
Cannot open /dev/console: Protocol not supported

I get equivalent messages with sendmail and telnet.

A local sub-guru though we needed to add

pseudo-device	ether 

to the configuration file.  It didn't help.

I suspect this is a release problem. 
Can anyone shed some light on the required fix?

Thanks,
