Is there a way to get sendmail to use SMTP AUTH and LDAPMAP without
recompiling all the binaries?
...
without rebuilding userland.
The way I do it right now is by adding WANT_SMTPAUTH and WANT_LDAP
to mk.conf and rebuilding all binaries but was wondering if there
is a better way.
Well, you don't have to rebuild *all* binaries, just sendmail. Sorry if
I'm misinterpreting what you meant here. A sendmail rebuild just takes
minutes on my box.
If you're merely asking the powers that be to change the way sendmail is
built, that's a different matter entirely, and one I won't attempt to
answer.
Thanks for your reply. No, it is not a request to change sendmail
because I actually like the way sendmail is built!
What I tried to do was the following:
cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail
make clean all
I thought this would pick up the mk.conf directives for WANT_SMTPAUTH
and WANT_LDAP. But when I rebooted the build machine it did not allow
me to access the OpenLDAP server for aliases. So I built the whole
userland (and xenocara) using the process described in the FAQ and
that did solve the problem. So I probably am missing something here.
