Oops. let me make a small change:

In the script showhow, change
	SENDMAIL=/usr/lib/sendmail -bt -Csendmail.out -d21.12
to
	SENDMAIL="/usr/lib/sendmail -bt -Csendmail.out -d21.12"
That is, put quotes around your sendmail invocation.

Also - to get the script to work on an Ultrix 2.0 machine,
change
		-e 's/\^V/$#/' \
		-e 's/\^X/$:/' \
		-e 's/\^W/$@/' \
to
		-e 's/\^U/$#/' \
		-e 's/\^V/$@/' \
		-e 's/\^W/$:/' \

It seems that the internal codes for the $#, $@ and $: tokens
are one higher in Ultrix 3.0 than 2.0.

I haven't heard one peep from anyone since I posted this.
Either everything is clear or I really botched it!

I also realized that some people send me mail asking for the test scripts,
and I gave them the scripts with no instructions (which was in the posting).

If you don't still have the posting, you can just do
	showwhere <debug.in>debug.out

Then you can compare the debug.out file with a known good ruleset output.
