Hello,
I have a dialup connection to the internet from my FreeBSD machine =
(v2.2.6). So I need to change my default /etc/sendmail.cf config file =
since my outgoing email reads banta@voyager.ghulam.force9.co.uk instead =
of banta@ghulam.force9.co.uk . Following the instructions for this in =
the FAQ (sections 8.18 and 8.19) it says I create a .mc file, in my case =
ghulam.mc. This file is given below using the template of 8.19 in the =
FAQ: =20
VERSIONID(`voyager.ghulam.force9.co.uk.mc version 1.0')=20
OSTYPE(bsd4.4)dnl
FEATURE(nouucp)dnl=20
MAILER(local)dnl=20
MAILER(smtp)dnl=20
Cwlocalhost
Cwvoyager.ghulam.force9.co.uk
Cwghulam.force9.co.uk=20
MASQUERADE_AS(`ghulam.force9.co.uk')dnl=20
FEATURE(allmasquerade)dnl=20
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
FEATURE(nocanonify)dnl
FEATURE(nodns)dnl=20
define(SMART_HOST, `relay.force9.net')=20
Dmghulam.force9.co.uk=20
define(`confDOMAIN_NAME',`ghulam.force9.co.uK')dnl=20
define(`confDELIVERY_MODE',`deferred')dnL
Where voyager.ghulam.force9.co.uk is my hostname and ghulam.force9.co.uk =
my email domain. The problem occurs when I follow the instructions in =
FAQ 8.18 to convert this ghulam.mc to a ghulam.cf to replace my =
/etc/sendmail.cf. When I'm in the directory: =
/usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf, I do:
make ghulam.cf <---though shouldn't this be ghulam.mc? but this is =
what the FAQ says
And the Makefile generates an error:
Makefile:32:*** missing separator. Stop.
So I thought that now the problem's with the makefile, so I reinstalled =
the entire sendmail source distribution from the 1st cdrom under =
/cdrom/src/ssmailcf.aa. But I still get the same sendmail error.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ghulam
