The Oracle documents for sendmail on Solaris 11 should cover everything you need to configure sendmail on OI. I can send you some sendmail.mc files that I use, but I'd recommend you try the Oracle site first. Their documents are free to use. I prowled a few oracle docs on sendmail before posting and found the two I looked at to be considerably less than useful. Navigating oracle solaris docs is not so easily done... at least not in my experience. However, with your prompting I dug around some more and found some really helpful stuff like: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E41138/html/ch15s06.html which has some nice detailed information. You mentioned docs for solaris 11. How do I know when I'm looking at solaris 11 and not something a bit older? ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

[OpenIndiana-discuss] [hipster] bug or pilot error
Fressh install of newest hipster OI-hipster-gui-20141010.iso This is my first adventure with hipster so not really sure what kind of thing to holler about in the way of bug type stuff. Checking here to see if this issue should be a bug report. I had occasion to install a pkg I don't recall which now but probable guile. Or maybe gcc related. It required 4 other packages to meet install requirements. Watching the action from pkg cmdline. I see that 4 other pkgs are being installed, but never see any indication of what they are. Even the sort of report that appears at the end of installing something... All I see is that 5 pkgs were installed. On trodding around in the `pkg manpage'... I never really saw a way to get a list of pkgs in order of being installed. Of the many ways to use the `list' subcmd... I never saw a way to get such a list. During an install operation Is there supposed to be some evidence of what is getting installed. Or at least what has just been installed. I mean besides the pkg on the cmdline.

For debugging only, you could try opening permissions on those files and that directory. If that fixes the issue, then you know that it's permission-related, and you can focus on that. That one is ruled out now I guess since I set the directory 777 and file 666 but still had the same error. Or maybe it is referring to ` /usr/ccs/bin/m4 ' Which is in fact absent: root # ls -l /usr/css/bin/m4 ls: cannot access /usr/css/bin/m4: No such file or directory Once again... right on the money. One more thing I'm checking next is the actual format of the line. I remember having errors once the source being not having backticks where they are needed in the stanza lines. This one looks right in that regard but I'll find one on someone elses *.mc and compare if I don't see it in that readme. ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

It was very helpful Oh, believe me, I have plenty of well why didn't I think of insert totally obvious debugging step here moments, so I can relate. The easy thing to do would be to remove that line (or comment it out, remember for m4 it's dnl) and then try the rebuild. If it works, then it's that line. Bingo... yup its that line. Ok, looking at my OI151a9 box, I don't have the file /etc/mail/cf/feature/authinfo.m4 That means that the authinfo FEATURE isn't part of the sendmail-related packages I have installed. Perhaps there's some extra package for sendmail that would include it. I'm still weak with IPS, but the Oracle IPS one-liners doc lead me to try pkg search authinfo.m4 pkg search /etc/mail/cf both of which seem to imply that there aren't any add-on packages that might provide additional features that aren't included in the base package. I no longer have the email where you first described your config, but did you grab this authinfo.m4 from somewhere else on the net and drop it into place on your OI box? If you did, can you include the contents of that file in a response, so we can see what the macros are actually doing? If you didn't, then you should first verify that you do have that file. Without it, trying to use FEATURE with that basename isn't going to work. It could also be a permissions problem.

That one is ruled out now I guess since I set the directory 777 and file 666 but still had the same error. Good. I doubted that was it, but I know that how (and who) sendmail runs has changed over the years, so something that's only readable via the root user may not work in all cases. Case in point, the aliases.db has group read permission for smmsp group, since that's what the submission agent (?) runs as.

No, I did nothing like that.
I think you've just exposed the mystery. I think that line about the
file is telling me just what you suggest here.
`/usr/ccs/bin/m4:sendmail.mc:13 cannot open file: No such file or directory
include(../feature/authinfo.m4)'
That part of the error message is apparently saying the `no such file'
is authinfo.m4... kind of a peculiar formulation actually but I bet
that's the meaning of it.
I got the formulation here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E41138/html/ch15s06.html
`FEATURE('authinfo','hash /etc/mail/auth/smtp-auth.db')dnl;
you will see it just below center of that page.
where I originally followed those steps exactly.
That is, I put the information in /etc/mail/auth/smtp-auth
as specified on that page.
I hit that same failure we are now seeing on authinfo.
My first post on this showed that failure and that forumulation.
I then borrowed the current formulation from an old config from a
linux box hoping the naming difference was the problem. That one had
it:
FEATURE(`authinfo', `hash /etc/mail/authinfo')dnl
So I switched from
FEATURE(`authinfo', `hash /etc/mail/auth/smtp-auth')dnl
.
Both fail with same failure and now doing `find /etc/mail -name '*.m4''
I find of the 71 *.m4 files present none of them appear to be related
to authentication.
I guess it was thought none would be needed...
Thanks for solving the mystery.
