So I take it this means it is not installed by default and i have to build an rpm from src? since that is a sendmail package does that mean that sendmail is not there by default either? On 24-Apr-04 Richard Bos wrote:

Does SuSE have UUCP installed or is it a seperate package?

Name : uucp Relocations: (not relocateable) Version : 1.07 Vendor: SuSE Linux AG, Nuernberg, Germany Release : 78 Build Date: Fre 03 Okt 2003 01:45:06 MEST Install date: (not installed) Build Host: Eisenstein.suse.de Group : Productivity/Networking/Other Source RPM: sendmail-8.12.10-15.src.rpm Size : 1323677 License: GPL, Other License(s), see package Packager : http://www.suse.de/feedback URL : http://www.sendmail.org/ Summary : Taylor UUCP Description : Ian Taylor's Unix to Unix copy: mail and news over modem lines. This is the standard UUCP package of the Free Software Foundation. Configured to use HoneyDanBer or Taylor configuration files. With version 6.0 of SuSE Linux, we moved the configuration directory to /etc/uucp. Exactly: Taylor config: /etc/uucp HoneyDanBer config: /etc/uucp/hdb_config If you have your own setup under /var/lib/uucp, move it to /etc/uucp. Example configurations can be found under /usr/share/doc/packages/uucp.

Remark: We did not include an uucp guest account. So, if you want to create a guest account, make sure the directory /var/spool/uucppublic exists.

Just install it with yast and it's there. SuSE uses postfix instead of sendmail. Postfix is more secure, and uses the same commands as sendmail. -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
