Why ? What problem do you have ?
Anyway, forget that, and follow these simple steps:
untar the file:
tar -xzf sendmail.8.8.6.tar.gz
cd sendmail-8.8.6/src
Then edit the Makefiles/Makefile.Linux (I think)
in there, change the -D flags, from -DGDBM to -DNEWDB
then, look in the file for -l , and change it from what is is to -ldb
Then, look for kmem, and change it to bin , and look for 6755 and change
it to 4755.
save the file
Then, in the sendmail-8.8.6/src directory, run:
./makesendmail
after it finishes compiling, run
./makesendmail install
Then, do killall -TERM sendmail, and run /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q 15m
check that the installation didn't leave a /usr/sbin/sendmail.* (* stand
for something). If it did, then:
chmod 0000 /usr/sbin/sendmail.* (* here stands for something)
