All, I'm usually just a lurker on this list but I ran into a small problem. I recently found out that the SSL certificate I created for my sendmail server has expired. I need to update it. I was following along with the suggestions at http://veldt.com/2003/08/smtp-auth-ssl-with-sendmail-freebsd/ but I ran into a problem, I was hoping I could just generate a new certificate with the following commands: "next, you’ll need to generate certificates for sendmail to use. mkdir /etc/mail/certs cd /etc/mail/certs mktemp /tmp/openssl.XXXXX1 mktemp /tmp/openssl.XXXXX2 PEM1='/tmp/openssl.XXXXX1' PEM2='/tmp/openssl.XXXXX2' openssl req -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout $PEM1 \ -nodes -x509 -days 365 -out $PEM2 cat $PEM1 > sendmail.pem echo "" >> sendmail.pem cat $PEM2 >> sendmail.pem cp $PEM2 ca-bundle.crt rm $PEM1 $PEM2 chmod 400 sendmail.pem chmod 400 ca-bundle.crt " I ran into some problems around "PEM1='/tmp'openssl.XXXXX1' for some reason FreeBSD is now seeing this as a command, and is responding "PEM1=/tmp/openssl.XXXXX1: Command not found." I am certain that these are the commands I ran the first time (04/12/2004) to create the certificates, why aren't they working now?
