I have been trying to figur eout how to get the sendmail build files to
generate a mailertable.db and access.db file. I have added the
appropriate FEATURE lines to my sendmail.mc file. I have then tried to
run the make command from the /etc/mail directory. This doees not create
the requried files. Failing that I tried to run the sendmailconfig
program to see if it would create my additional files. This did not work
either. In order to create these files I need to either run:
make mailertable.db
Eh?
ultima-thule:/etc/mail# touch mailertable
ultima-thule:/etc/mail# make
Updating mailertable ...
ultima-thule:/etc/mail#
or perform the makemap by hand. This does not seem to be a reasonable
method of creating the database files for sendmail, especially since
almost every other distribution I've worked with (and debian previously)
would have a proper working Makefile in /etc/mail.
um... and Debian worked when you were not using sequences for your maps...
sendmail.mc:
[...]
LOCAL_CONFIG
Khaccess hash -T<TMPF> /etc/mail/access
Ksaccess socket unix:/var/spool/map.sock
Khmailertable hash /etc/mail/mailertable
Ksmailertable socket unix:/var/spool/map.sock
[...]
FEATURE(`access_db', `sequence haccess saccess')dnl
FEATURE(`mailertable', `sequence hmailertable smailertable')dnl
There is the root of your problem... the current setup lacks decent
support for sequence maps :(
I do take patches :)
