[ILUG] sendmail, makemap probs

[Hunt, Bryan]

If you are only just making the switch why not use postfix rather than
sendmail (which is a b*tch in all regards), you wont have to worry about all
that horrible configuration + there is 
a webmin module.

Subject: [ILUG] sendmail, makemap probs


Hi Folks,
Redhat 7.0, kernel 2.2.16-22 on an i486
Just before (finally) switching to sendmail and qpopper from a windows box,
I decided (in my wisdom) to stick in the newest stable sendmail version.

I have downloaded and compiled sendmail 8.12.2 but apparently I am missing
NEWDB stuff

When I try to run 'makemap hash access' I get ...
'makemap: Need to recompile with -DNEWDB for hash support'

I have tried adding 'APPENDDEF(`confMAPDEF', `-DNEWDB') to the Makefile.m4
in the sendmail-8.12.2/makemap directory and running a 'sh Build -c' which
gives me the errors:

------<Snip>--------

I tried to get the Berkelely NEWDB stuff from www.sleepycat.com but site
seems to be down, and a google for mirrors gives no joy !

Am I on the right track ? . I think I need the Berkeley NEWDB stuff, but I
dont know why, as with my previous sendmail (the stock redhat7.0 one, 8.9 I
think) i could do the makemap hash ... stuff ok.

Thanks
