As sendmail is in /usr/local/sbin a search in /usr/sbin fails: [root@dns1 /usr/ports/mail/postfix-policyd-spf-perl]# sh -c 'test -f /usr/sbin/sendmail && echo sendmail found' [root@dns1 /usr/ports/mail/postfix-policyd-spf-perl]# cd /usr/sbin/ [root@dns1 /usr/sbin]# ls -l |grep sendmail
whereis shows its location: [root@dns1 /usr/sbin]# whereis sendmail sendmail: /usr/local/sbin/sendmail /usr/local/man/man1/sendmail.1.gz /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail And a modified search finds it: [root@dns1 /usr/sbin]# sh -c 'test -f /usr/local/sbin/sendmail && echo sendmail found' sendmail found [root@dns1 /usr/sbin]# david _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
