This all assumes you havn't manually hacked your sendmail.cf, if you have, the following steps will eat any changes youve made (but then, it looks like your patch did that too, so...)
  1. cd /etc/mail
  2. cp -p sendmail.cf sendmail.cf.borked
  3. cd /usr/lib/mail/cf
  4. make
  5. cp subsidiary.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
  6. /etc/init.d/sendmail stop
  7. /etc/init.d/sendmail start
  8. tail /var/adm/messages

*I haven't worked with sol7 for a while, it could be /etc/sendmail.cf instead of /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

patch update and break mirror

Hi All, How do you know if you need to break the mirror on solaris 8 patch update? Here's the patch example, 117350-54. On the site, it's just a low type update and not a medium or critical. Is breaking a mirror a best practice only or really a requirement to some patch? Thanks, itik (1 Reply)

SENDMAILCONFIG(8)					      System Manager's Manual						 SENDMAILCONFIG(8)

NAME
sendmailconfig - configure sendmail for Debian systems SYNOPSIS
sendmailconfig [--no-reload] DESCRIPTION
sendmailconfig is used to simplify the configuration of sendmail(8) for use on Debian systems. In the simplest case, you may run this program to (re)configure sendmail for your Debian system at any time. It will modify the file /etc/mail/sendmail.mc in order to create a working sendmail configuration which will be written to the file /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. For advanced configurations, you can modify the sendmail.mc file before generating sendmail.cf. Future invokations of sendmailconfig will preserve these changes provided they are made at the end of the file. Normally sendmailconfig will ask if you want to reload sendmail after making changes to its configuration. The --no-reload option will avoid this question. FILES
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc sendmail m4 input to generate sendmail.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf actual sendmail configuration file /etc/mail/sendmail.cw names for which we will accept mail in the standard configuration /etc/mail/sendmail.ct names of trusted users in the standard configuration SEE ALSO
