Quoting Jancio Wodnik <jancio_wodnik@xxxxx>:
I have got latest sendmail's update on my rh73 and rh9 boxes.
Issues are still the same: after update there is lack of those files:
After update from which version? Were any manual changes made those files
on the machine before the latest install? Did you install or upgrade
the package?
When i remember, there was an update of sendmail in march, wait, i will
grep that for you:
25 of march my system was update with sendmail-8.12.11-4.22.9.legacy and
then was problem with AUTH - mail from local lan were rejected, so i
greep mailing list, irc and i made: alternatives --configure mta so
(when i can well remember) this command rebuild all broken symlink, in
/etc/pam.d too.
After that, there cam another update of sendmail,
sendmail-8.12.11-4.22.10.legacy which broke again AUTH, i fix that by
making necessery symbolic links by hand, i make that quickly,
alternatives --config mail didn't make necessry symlinks (wired ?).
1) there is no more /etc/pam.d/smtp.sendmail -> but thereis
/etc/pam.d/smtp.rpmnew
2) there is no more /usr/lib/sendmail.sendmail
See the excellent post by David E. and see which category you fit in,
and whether or not his explainations there explain your problems or
not.
Saddly, but all these boxes are production servers, so i have no time to
do further investigation.
In /etc/alternatives were broken links: mta-pam, mta-sendmail,
mta-sendmailman
I can confirm if you did both updates in order you have broken links
on RH9, but interesting my broken links are different from what you
report.
My sendmail rejects incoming mail form LAN, so i must by hand fix above
broken symlinks, after that and sendmail reload all goes fine.
If you remove sendmail and reinstall the latest package (you should
certainly
backup /etc/mail before doing this) does it resolve all the problems you
see?
Sory, but i can't experiment for that, it is production box and we are
planning to move to CentOS.
So there are still problems with the latest update, when we spoke
about: problems with alternatives and sendmail. In my opinion: the
latest update didn't fix that. That's all.
We need more info on what you did before we can conclude that.
I think the biggest problem/complaint would be that the fine details
about
how to apply the newest package based on previous updates was missing.
It should have made mention of what would happen in the 4 different
cases.
Yes i saw that.
How to apply ? By yum night updates !
I'm tired, so i close this case for me and will not do further
investigation. Sorry.
See ya.
best reg ...
