For instance, I did a minimal install, updated my ports, installed cvsup-without-gui & fastest-cvsup, cvsupped my sources, ran a buildworld to get the base system up to date, then added the following to make.conf: SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2 SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2 installed sasl2 by compiling from the ports then I recompiled Sendmail as follows: cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail make clean make obj make depend make make install Once that was done, I went into /etc/mail and added the following to freebsd.mc define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl After saving the file, I ran the following in /etc/mail: make all make install make restart After which a telnet session showed the correct AUTH paramenters. In the instances I had a screwup in which I could not resolve, I've made the following bonehead moves: 1. Ran make installworld without dropping to single-user mode 2. cvsupped to the wrong source tree due to my ignorance of the tags in the cvsup file. My latest misadventures with getting PLAIN LOGIN working were on systems where I did everything correctly, but installed a number of ports prior to messing with the MTA. This included Apache, PHP, MySQL, Squirrelmail, XOrg, KDE-lite, and whatever dependencies were needed. The same issue occured with trying to get PLAIN AUTH working with Postfix, and on a second box with Sendmail. I ended up reinstalling, and focused on getting the MTA and SASL2 working immediately after getting the system up to date, and had no issues. IMHO, worry about getting PLAIN LOGIN working before messing with compiling SSL support into Sendmail. In my experience, configuring SSL can be a pain, making sure everything is where it's supposed to be. Best regards, Greg Groth
