ECO INFORMATION:
ECO Name: mailsetup
ECO Kit Approximate Size: 112640 bytes
Kit Applies To: Tru64 UNIX V4.0D - V4.0F
ECO KIT SUMMARY:
This patch only applies to the mailsetup command installed with the IASS V4.2
IAFWSMTP420 subset.
Symptom
In IASS Version 4.2, forms were added to the IASS Administration utility
for configuring the SMTP server to use anti-Spam and LDAP features, but
the macros for these features were not added to the mailsetup script
installed by IASS. As a result, if you use the IASS Administration
utility to configure the SMTP server, after prompting for all the
required information, the mailsetup script displays this message:
Error creating /var/adm/sendmail/hostname.cf; exiting
The mailsetup script then fails to create a new configuration file
(sendmail.cf).
Installation Instructions
This patched mailsetup command should only be used with the IAFWSMTP420
(sendmail) subset of the IASS Version 4.2 kit. To install the patch,
follow these steps:
Check that you need the patched mailsetup command by entering the
following command:
# ls -l /usr/sbin/mailsetup
rwxrwxrwx 1 root system 40 Jan 13 12:43
/usr/sbin/mailsetup->../../usr/opt/IAFW420/usr/sbin/mailsetup
If /usr/sbin/mailsetup is not a symbolic link to
../../usr/opt/IAFW420/usr/sbin/mailsetup, then stop. Either you have not
installed the IAFWSMTP420 (sendmail) subset of the IASS Version 4.2 kit,
or you have already patched the mailsetup command.
Change to a temporary directory in which to save the patched mailsetup
command:
# cd tmpdir
Download the patched mailsetup command.
From the directory in which you saved the new patched mailsetup command,
enter the following commands to put the patched mailsetup command in
place:
# mv /usr/sbin/mailsetup /usr/sbin/mailsetup.IAF420
# cp mailsetup /usr/sbin/mailsetup
# chmod 755 /usr/sbin/mailsetup
# chown bin.bin /usr/sbin/mailsetup
