	I have a question regarding FreeBSD 4.6-Stable. I am trying to configure
Sendmail-8.12.5 for SMTP AUTH, STARTTLS, TLS, Cyrus-SASL. I'm attemtping to
determine whether or not I can use cyrus-sasl2 as well. Yes, I realize that
this is a bit of a kitchen sink approach to the sendmail, but I don't expect
to use all of them. I just want to know how to implement them if need be.
	There is a document at
http://www.sial.org/talks/smtpauth-starttls/talk.html#Compile%20support%20fo
r%20Cyrus%20SASL that seems to have good information, however, it makes
reference to site.config.m4. I have gone to /usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf in
order to create a new sendmail.cf. Unfortunately, I cannot find a
site.config.m4 to modify, or even where it would go if I were going to
create on form scratch.
	I have seen the pages: http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html and
http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/starttls.html. Neither of these have
specific bearing on FreeBSD 4.6-Stable. I'm getting the impression that a
re-compile of Sendmail is in order, but I don't know that I will end up
knowing where the %$#@&^ site.config.m4 belongs.
	I have also looked at the port for Sendmail-8.12.6, but I'm unsure how to
recompile after I have done a make, and edited the site.config.m4 file.
Basically, I don't want to use the port unless I must.
	To sum it all up neatly: In a 4.6-Stable environment with native Sendmail,
where do I find the site.config.m4 file? Do I need to do anything special in
order to create it, and if so, how do I do those special things?
	I hope that I have been concise enough to get a straight answer, but if I
need to clarify anything, I will be happy to comply.
