Configuring the Sendmail Connection Configure the Sendmail connection only if you are using elm or mailx. To configure the local Sendmail connection, * Select the SENDMAIL item from the Configure X.400 Menu. This displays the Configure Sendmail Connection screen.Figure 7-13. Configure Sendmail Connection Screen The fields on the screen are: Connection Name Required. Default: SENDMAIL. This is the unique name that identifies the Sendmail connection. This name must be different from the local and adjacent MTA names, HP X.400/HP Desk Node names, the OpenMail connection name, and the API client names. It is a printable string of up to 32 characters. Use this connection name as the destination of a route when configuring additional routes for the Sendmail connection. Output Queue Display. This directory name is always /usr/spool/x400/oq/oq253. Country Code Display. The country configured for the local MTA. Administration Domain Name Display. The administration domain name configured for the local MTA. Private Domain Name Display. The Private Management Domain Name configured for the local MTA. Organization Name Optional. This is the organization name assigned to the Sendmail connection and is a printable string of up to 64 characters. The wildcard, asterisk (*), and the null character (#)are not allowed in this attribute for the primary route. Organization Unit Name 1-4 These are the organization unit names 1-4 assigned to the Sendmail connection and are printable strings. If domain defined attributes are not present in an incoming X.400 message, the organization unit names not configured here are used as the UNIX address where the X.400 message is sent. For more information, refer to the Using HP X.400 with Elm and Mailx manual. The wildcard, asterisk (*), and the null character (#)are not allowed in this attribute for the primary route. Each organization unit name is a printable string of up to 32 characters. Use keyword addressing Required. Default: n. Display address of the received message in keyword format. For more information on keyword addressing, refer to the Using Hp X.400 with Elm and Mailx manual. Use full personal name as a Sendmail alias name Required. Default: n. Use the full personal name in the format of surname_given_init_generation as a Sendmail alias name instead of surname. One primary route to the Sendmail connectionis created automaticallywhen the Sendmail connection is configured. Additional routes can be configured for the Sendmail connection by selecting the ROUTES item on the Configure X.400 Menu. Enough information must be supplied so that the route generated for the Sendmail connection is unique. To modifythe Sendmail connection, * Modify the connection name, organization name, or organization unit names. * Press the Perform Task key. If the route configured to this Sendmail connection is not a valid 1984 X.400 standard address form, a warning message displays. 1984 X.400 systems may not be able to handle such O/R addresses. Take this into consideration when configuring an O/R address for the first route to a Sendmail connection. See the O/R Address Attributes and Forms section in Chapter 2 for more information on 1984 X.400 standard address forms.
NOTE To complete the Sendmail configuration, changes must also be made to the Sendmail configuration file /usr/lib/sendmail.cf. See the section Changing the Sendmail Configuration File in this chapter for more information.
To delete the Sendmail connection, * Press the Action Menu key to display the Action Menu so you can select the Delete Sendmail Connection item. Deleting the Sendmail Connection To deletethe Sendmail connection, * Select the SENDMAIL item from the Configure X.400 Menu. * Press the Action Menu key. * Select the Delete Sendmail Connection item from the Action Menu. This displays the Delete Sendmail Connection screen.Figure 7-14. Delete Sendmail Connection Screen To delete the connection, * Press the Confirm key. To cancel the delete operation, * Press the Cancel key. Changing the Sendmail Configuration File If you have installed /usr/lib/x400/x4maileron your host, you must configure Sendmail to route X.400 mail to this mailer. To make changes to /usr/lib/sendmail.cf, you must be the super-user. You may define a default X.400 gateway host. This allows UNIX mail users to send X.400 mail without having to know which remote host is the X.400 gateway. If a default X.400 gateway host is not defined in the local sendmail.cf, UNIX mail users must explicitly address X.400 mail to the remote host where the X.400 gateway software is installed. Using HP's Sendmail.cf. If you are using a sendmail.cf supplied with HP-UX 7.0 or later, do the following: 1. To configure the local host as the X.400 gateway, execute the following command: /usr/lib/x400/x4smupdate 2. To configure a remote host as the default X.400 gateway, refer to the Using a Customized Sendmail.cf File section in this chapter. Complete the instructions for the remote host configuration. Using a Customized Sendmail.cf File. The following lists the steps to update your customized sendmail.cf file: 1. Edit the file /usr/lib/sendmail.cf. 2. Freeze the configuration file (optional). 3. Restart the Sendmail Daemon. Editing the Configuration File. If you are using your own customized version of sendmail.cf, do the following: 1. In Ruleset 1, if the local host name is stripped off, add the following line: R$+/$*/$*/$*/$* $:$1/$2/$3/$4/$5<@$w> 2. In Ruleset 2, if the local host name is stripped off, add the following line: R$+/$*/$*/$*/$* $:$1/$2/$3/$4/$5<@$w> Depending on the desired configuration, do one of the following: 1. If the X.400 gateway is installed on the local host, in Ruleset 0, add the following lines before the rule for the filename: # resolve X.400 mail R/$+=$+ $#x400$@$w$:/$1=$2 R$+/$*/$*/$*/$* $#x400$@$w$:$1/$2/$3/$4/$5 # explicitly distinguish file names from X.400 address R/$* $#local$:/$1 to absolute file path name Also, add an X.400 Mailer definition by adding the following lines: Mx400,P=/usr/lib/x400/x4mailer,F=CDMFmn,S=14,R=24,A=x4mailer -f $g $u S14 S24 2. If the X.400 gateway is installed on the remote host and you are configuring a default X.400 gateway host, define the macro Xby adding the following lines to the Configuration-Specific Macro and Class Definitions section: # X.400 relay if X.400 gateway is not local DX <gateway_hostname> where <gateway_hostname> is the name of the default X.400 gateway host. Also, in Ruleset 0, add the following lines before the rule for the filename: # resolve X.400 mail: remote host is X.400 gateway R/$+=$+ $#tcp$@$X$:/$1=$2<@$X> R$+/$*/$*/$*/$* $#tcp$@$X$:$1/$2/$3/$4/$5<@$X> # explicitly distinguish file names from X.400 address R/$* $#local$:/$1 to absolute file path name
NOTE Conflicts should not exist between any rulesets previously established.
Freezing the Configuration File. Each time Sendmail is invoked, the configuration file /usr/lib/sendmail.cf is read. If Sendmail should use a frozen configuration file, as super-user, execute the following command to create the configuration freeze file: /usr/lib/sendmail -bz When the configuration file is frozen, the frozen version of the configuration file, /usr/lib/sendmail.fc, is used each time Sendmail is invoked. If Sendmail should not use the frozen configuration file, execute the following command to delete the configuration: rm -f /usr/lib/sendmail.fc Restarting the Daemon. If a daemon is already running for Sendmail, kill the daemon before restarting another to activate the X.400 configuration changes. To kill the daemon, as super-user, execute the following command: /usr/lib/sendmail -bk To restart the daemon, as a super-user, execute the following command: /usr/lib/sendmail -bd -q30m The -bd mode invokes Sendmail as a server to receive incoming mail messages. The -q30m flag causes Sendmail to process the mail queue every 30 minutes. Refer to the HP-UX Reference Manual or Installing and Administering ARPA Services for information on Sendmail.
