get the source for sendmail from sendmail.org put it in /usr/src untar it cd to /usr/src/sendmail-xxx/sendmail do sh Build do the same for the directory makemap and any others in there you think you might need now, backup your current sendmail binaries (sendmail, makemap, mailq, newaliases, etc - they will be in /usr/sbin or /usr/bin and backup your configs in /etc/mail, just tar the whole thing up) and go back to the directories mentioned earlier and do sh Build install now you need to go to /etc/mail and do makemap hash access < access makemap hash virtusertable < virtusertable and continue for all the .db files that are in /etc/mail now rebuild your aliases file with newaliases now build your sendmail.cf file by copying /etc/mail/linux.mc to /usr/src/sendmail-xxx/cf/cf/sendmail.mc then cd to /usr/src/sendmail-xxx/cf/cf and do sh Build sendmail.cf copy this file to /etc/mail and /etc now restart sendmail rcsendmail restart thats all i had to do to get it working On Monday 01 April 2002 01:33 am, Πλαστήρας Αθανάσιος wrote:
Hi,
I have install SuSE Linux 7.3 and I want to upgrade the sendmail from standard version (8.11) to latest (8.12.2).
Did someone done this. IF yes, do you have any configurations files for SuSE (cf/cf/*.mc & cf/ostype/suse-linux.m4)? If you have could you send to me.... I want to upgrade for more security (relay, spammers etc...)
I am looking forward for your answers...
Thank you.
