newbie modifying sendmail configuration for IPv6...
My goal is to make sendmail accept connections over IPv6.
ok, this is the diff from after my edit: Code:
root@computer-compaq:/usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf# diff -u sendmail-slackware.mc sendmail-slackware-ipv6.mc Code:
root@computer-compaq:/usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf# m4 sendmail-slackware-ipv6.mc > ../../sendmail-slackware-ipv6.cf Code:
root@computer-compaq:/usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf# sh /etc/rc.d/rc.sendmail restart Doesn't sendmail support IPv6 by default on slackware? How can I check that? Do I have to modify some other configuration file? Which one? |
I just found out that the slackware package doesn't support IPv6 (I think)
When I run this, I don't see the "NETINET6" option under "Compiled with:" Code:
/usr/sbin/sendmail -bt -d0.4 < /dev/null Hints and tips are appreciated. Apparently I need to modify the site.config.m4 file. I've looked a few times at the slackbuild, and I'm not sure if it uses this file. |
Allright, I recompiled the packages for sendmail and sendmail-cf.
The slackbuild from Pattrick does compile from source and uses site.local.m4. I added this line to site.local.m4 and reran the slackbuild: Code:
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-DNETINET6') Apparently you cannot run sendmail on port 25 for IPv6 and on port 25 for IPv4, so I had to change the MTA line to this: Code:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=MTA-v4, Family=inet, Family=inet6') |
