Installing sendmail
|
|
|
|
Note: as of sendmail 8.9, a new build architecture is in place that allows
|
|
you to use the "Build" shell script in any of the program directories.
|
|
On many environments this will do everything for you, no fuss, no muss.
|
|
|
|
1. Read all the README files noted in the INTRODUCTION section of the README
|
|
file in this top-level directory.
|
|
|
|
2. Create any necessary site configuration build files, as noted in
|
|
devtools/Site/README.
|
|
|
|
3. In the sendmail/ directory, run "sh Build" (see sendmail/README for
|
|
details).
|
|
|
|
4. In the cf/cf/ directory (that's not a typo), copy whichever .mc file
|
|
best matches your environment to config.mc, where config can be any
|
|
name. Next, tailor it as explained in cf/README. Then run
|
|
"sh Build config.cf".
|
|
|
|
5. Back up your current /etc/mail/sendmail.cf and the sendmail binary (whose
|
|
location varies from operating system to operating system, but is usually
|
|
in /usr/sbin or /usr/lib).
|
|
|
|
6. Install config.cf as /etc/mail/sendmail.cf and install the sendmail binary
|
|
built in step 3 by cd-ing back to sendmail/ and running "sh Build install".
|
|
|
|
7. For each of the associated sendmail utilities (makemap, mailstats, etc.),
|
|
read the README in the utility's directory. When you are ready to install
|
|
it, back up your installed version and type "sh Build install".
