Okay, so I'm a bit slow on the uptake but I figured out that the PEM1
and PEM2 commands are supposed to be preceeded by set in my shell.
I have now generated the new certificate, but how do I get sendmail to
recognize it? I have even built sendmail from the src on my local
machine. for some reason it's still utilizing the old openssl
certificate that I generated over a year ago (even though the actual
file was removed before I ran the commands below.
Your help is appreciated.

All,
I'm usually just a lurker on this list but I ran into a small problem.
I recently found out that the SSL certificate I created for my
sendmail server has expired. I need to update it. I was following
along with the suggestions at
http://veldt.com/2003/08/smtp-auth-ssl-with-sendmail-freebsd/ but I
ran into a problem, I was hoping I could just generate a new
certificate with the following commands:
"next, you’ll need to generate certificates for sendmail to use.
mkdir /etc/mail/certs
cd /etc/mail/certs
mktemp /tmp/openssl.X1
mktemp /tmp/openssl.X2
PEM1='/tmp/openssl.X1'
PEM2='/tmp/openssl.X2'
openssl req -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout $PEM1 \
-nodes -x509 -days 365 -out $PEM2
cat $PEM1 > sendmail.pem
echo "" >> sendmail.pem
cat $PEM2 >> sendmail.pem
cp $PEM2 ca-bundle.crt
rm $PEM1 $PEM2
chmod 400 sendmail.pem
chmod 400 ca-bundle.crt
"
I ran into some problems around "PEM1='/tmp'openssl.X1' for some
reason FreeBSD is now seeing this as a command, and is responding
"PEM1=/tmp/openssl.X1: Command not found." I am certain that these
are the commands I ran the first time (04/12/2004) to create the
certificates, why aren't they working now?
Thanks for your help...
