Hi list! I'm wondering what's up with the sendmail configuration in Debian. There seems to be some kind of filesystem call wrapper installed in Sendmail that prevents various parts of sendmail access to various parts of the filesystem even though it's running as root, but I can't figure out what part of Sendmail does it or how it can be configured.
It isn't just limited to sendmail proper either, but also programs like makemap. Right now, I'm having problems with regenerating access.db, like this: $ pwd /etc/mail $ sudo make Creating /etc/mail/relay-domains # Optional file... Updating access_db ... makemap: error opening type hash map /etc/mail/access.new.db: Permission denied chown: cannot access `/etc/mail/access.new.db': No such file or directory chmod: cannot access `/etc/mail/access.new.db': No such file or directory mv: cannot stat `/etc/mail/access.new.db': No such file or directory make: *** [/etc/mail/access.db] Error 1 $ ls -ld drwxr-xr-x 7 smmta smmsp 4096 2008-10-28 03:41 . Does anyone know how this can be remedied, and where it comes from in the first place? Fredrik Tolf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
