The only step I would add to this is if you use different sendmail.cf on
different machines, ie the mail server vs. the reset.  Put
SENDMAIL_CF=mailserver.cf or client.cf in the machines /etc/make.conf
and on the mail server do:

- mount /usr/src (ro?) and /usr/obj (not at the server, of
  course:)
+ cd /usr/src/sendmail ; make
- make installworld
- mergemaster [ -s -v ]
- build kernel
- install kernel
- reboot

And on one of the other machines also do a 

+ cd /usr/src/sendmail ; make

so that each machine will install the proper sendmail.cf.

The other option is on the build server to do

cd /usr/src/sendmail
make SENDMAIL_CF=mailserver.cf
make SENDMAIL_CF=client.cf

Of course you would name mailserver.cf and client.cf to match your .mc
files that you have customized.
