State Changed From-To: open->closed I have removed the mention of DEF_AUTH_INFO from the Handbook text completely. Let's focus on building sendmail server here, users probably all have SMTP speaking clients by now. Responsible Changed From-To: keramida->pav I did it |
The Handbook section 20.9, SMTP Authentication needs a small change. Sendmail 8.12.9 documentation for confDEF_AUTH_INFO says in part: Notice: this option is deprecated and will be removed in future versions; it doesn't work for the MSP since it can't read the file. Use the authinfo ruleset instead. See also the section SMTP AUTHENTICATION. So the section in the handbook that says: Add these lines to it: dnl set SASL options TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')dnl define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')dnl define(`confDEF_AUTH_INFO', `/etc/mail/auth-info')dnl should be changed to: FEATURE(authinfo, `hash -o /etc/mail/authinfo')dnl then add a line something like: AuthInfo: domain.tld "U:user" "P:password" "M:PLAIN then makemap hash authinfo < authinfo Fix: Change the one line. It would be helpful to describe the format of the authinfo entries How-To-Repeat: n/a
