Description bitbucket63-it 2007-05-18 04:00:08 UTC

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/smtp-auth.html has incorrect information for make.conf. it state that you should set:

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/sasl -DSASL

in make.conf but that causes compile errors. However:

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL

works fine.

Fix: 

Change the documentation to reflect the way that works.
How-To-Repeat: Follow the instructions by the letter

That's funny, I built my sendmail with the flags as documented, and it
worked just fine.

I too build my sendmail using '-I/usr/local/include/sasl' and it works 
just fine.  I'm using cyrus-sasl-2.1.22 from the ports system and the 
include files are installed under /usr/local/include/sasl/: 

> cd /usr/local/include/sasl/ 
> ls -l 
total 102 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   1368 Jul 30  2006 hmac-md5.h 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   1442 Jul 30  2006 md5.h 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   1007 Jul 30  2006 md5global.h 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   7273 Jul 30  2006 prop.h 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  49845 Jul 30  2006 sasl.h 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  32920 Jul 30  2006 saslplug.h 
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   2648 Jul 30  2006 saslutil.h 

The only way -I/usr/local/include will work instead is if you did 
one of the following: 

1. Installed cyrus-sasl in a customized fashion. 
2. Instead of using -DSASL, you used -DSASL=2 or -DSASL=20000 (or higher)
