I've just (today) put UK Sendmail 2.1 up on one of our (Unisoft V.2) machines. I had to make a few changes. I don't have diff -c, I'm afraid. I have run Support/SysV.sh before doing these modifications. The Sendmail is 5.60 with modifications made by CMC. The nameserver is named 4.8. (1) The sed script in Config which massages the config file into /tmp/config.$$ didn't seem to work correctly. All entries after the first "channel" line got deleted. I suspect some lossage in my sed. I replaced it with: 34,43c34 < (cat $1; echo) | sed -n ' < /#/s/#.*// < /^$/d < : repeat < N < s/\n[ ][ ]*// < t repeat < P < D < ' > /tmp/config.$$ --- | (cat $1; echo) | sed '/#/s/#.*//;/^$/d' > /tmp/config.$$ (2) As I found with 1.4 last week, the DA line gets lost by the nroff-ing process. I altered Dombuild as follows: 101c101 < printf "\nD%s%s\n", C, rhs >cl_outd --- | printf "\nD%s %s\n", C, rhs >cl_outd (3) I run with a nameserver, as an experiment, and the Dj macro is defined wrongly for that case (I think). Using the standard version for MULTIHOST resulted in message ids like "<...@pea.fulcrum.bt.co.uk.fulcrum.bt.co.uk>", presumably because the hostname was already fully qualified from the resolver. Here's my fix: 27c27 < ifdef(`MULTIHOST',`Dj$w.$J',`Dj$J') --- | ifdef(`MULTIHOST',`ifdef(`NAMESERVER',`Dj$w',`Dj$w.$J')',`Dj$J') (4) System V Release 2 /bin/mail is very limited. I altered the flags as follows (the settings are taken from the sendmail.cf supplied with my System V port of sendmail). 21,23c21,23 < Mlocal, P=/bin/mail, F=rnlsmFD, S=20, R=20, A=mail -d $u < Mbinmail, P=/bin/mail, F=rnlsmFD, S=20, R=20, A=mail -d $u < Mprog, P=/bin/sh, F=nlsFD, S=20, R=20, A=sh -c $u --- | Mlocal, P=/bin/mail, F=lsDFMmn, S=20, R=20, A=mail $u | Mbinmail, P=/bin/mail, F=lsDFMmn, S=20, R=20, A=mail $u | Mprog, P=/bin/sh, F=lsDFMe, S=20, R=20, A=sh -c $u 53c53 < Mether, P=[IPC], F=nsmFDMuXC, S=21, R=21, A=IPC $h --- | Mether, P=[IPC], F=mDFMueCX, S=11, R=21, A=IPC $h
