How to configure sendmail on Red Hat Linux.
Sendmail should be installed by default when you install Red Hat
Linux. If it is not then you need to install the Sendmail RPM's
with the Red Hat distribution.
Download the Sendmail RPM's from the RedHat
website, from a mirror
or from your Red Hat installation CD.
These RPM's are required:
sendmail-{ver}.i386.rpm
sendmail-cf-{ver}.i386.rpm
sendmail-devel-{ver}.i386.rpm
Configuring Sendmail
1). Edit file "/etc/mail/sendmail.mc" - Look for
the line:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1,
Name=MTA')
Change this line to:
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1,
Name=MTA')
Save the file.
2). Make the sendmail configuration file:
| $> m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf |
3).Restart Sendmail:
| $> /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail restart |
