I'm attempting to complete the addition of SALS authentication to sendmail as described here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/smtp-auth.html I have completed most of the tasks, but when I run "make install restart" make outputs this error: ---------------- su-2.05b# make install restart install -c -m slaxlan.org.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf install: invalid file mode: slaxlan.org.cf *** Error code 64 Stop in /etc/mail. --------------- File mode seems to imply permissions to me, but the perms for the slaxlan.org.cf file match the sendmail.cf file (which have never been changed, I think). I'm wondering what I can do to fix this and if it's related to my inability to send mail through prompt (via mail or pine) unless in su. Unless I set /var/spool/mqueue and /var/spool/clientmqueue to 777... This is what outputs when I attempt to send a message at anything other than 777: ------------------- collect: Cannot write ./dfh5KHcdt5022071 (bfcommit, uid=1000, gid=1001): Permission denied queueup: cannot create queue temp file ./tfh5KHcdt5022071, uid=1000: Permission denied -------------------- Here are what they look like in for perms (it works right now, but I don't want to keep 777 perms, you can understand): --- su-2.05b# ls -l /var/spool/ | grep que drwxrwxrwx 3 smmsp smmsp 512 Jun 19 11:14 clientmqueue drwxrwxrwx 2 root daemon 512 Jun 20 09:18 mqueue --- Help me out guys, thx.
