that might block startup, and be more permissive in general about
allowing the daemons to start.
Add some descriptive comments to the top of the smmsp script that
describe the purpose of the process.
sendmail 8.12.8. Some of the same machinery (in shorter form) is in
the additions to rc.d/sendmail. Also, add a smmsp startup script for
the sendmail client queue runner.
implicitly using $name if $rcvar isn't set), and always perform this check,
even when using start_cmd (et al).
this check is performed before the pidcmd
is run, speeding up scripts that weren't going to be run anyway.
this should speed up booting slow systems.
- take advantage of the above and remove
start_precmd="checkyesno foo"
in scripts that use start_cmd.
- explicitly set rcvar=foo in the rc.d/foo scripts which have an equivalent
rc.conf entry
- fix `rcvar' and `restart' when $rcvar isn't set.
these above changes fix PR [bin/11027].
- when doing `force*', ignore the return value of *_precmd.
this fixes PR [bin/10781].
- rename what sysdb provides from `databases' to `sysdb', to reflect
the name of the script.
- improve the comments in rc.subr
- /etc/mail/sendmail.cf exists, no /etc/sendmail.cf
- /etc/mail/sendmail.cf exists, /etc/sendmail.cf same content as
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
die in other cases. PR 10243.
- sendmail configuration files are in /etc/mail, not /etc.
- src/etc/aliases will be installed into /etc/mail/aliases (confusing)
- rc.d/sendmail warns if /etc/sendmail.cf exists.
