FC4 and Sendmail - Cannot create sendmail.pem
 

Not the most UBER of GEEKS when it comes to Sendmail, but I can usually hold my own. However, with the advent of FC4 I am having a boatload of odd problems... not the least of which is that there does not seem to be a "/usr/share/ssl/certs" directory created, thus makiing it seemingly impossible to create 'sendmail.pem' to enable SSL connects to sendmail at 587.

I have dovecot setup to handle my IMAP and that seems fine... may breakdown and try cyrus at some point when I have a day to kill... but SENDMAIL is being the bane of my existence right now

Folks, I know I must be missing something silly here. OpenSSL is installed... YUM has run... everything "looks" good... what is broken? :scratch:

HELP PLEASE!

Thanks... David

If you "rpm -ql openssl|grep cert" then there should be a /usr/share/ssl/certs dir which should contain Makefile, ca-bundle.crt and make-dummy-cert which are RH-contributed files that are injected in the rpm. If they don't exist anywhere else then that package seems broken, but then you run FC-bleeding-edge-4...

Extract those files from an FC3 or FC2 rpm, make /usr/share/ssl/certs, put the Makefile, ca-bundle.crt and make-dummy-cert there and link ca-bundle.crt to ../cert.pem and you should be set.

Silly question... does anyone know WHICH rpm files are required. For some reason I am having a rotten time trying to find that info in the online forums and in Redhat's website.
