Post-Install Notes for Majordomo
|
|
===========================================================================
|
|
|
|
Before you can use Majordomo, you will need to complete a few steps
|
|
manually:
|
|
|
|
- install majordomo.cf in ${HOME}/${MAJORDOMO_USER}.
|
|
Look in ${PREFIX}/share/examples/majordomo for an example and
|
|
be sure to change instances of ${HOSTNAME} as appropriate.
|
|
|
|
- create lists in ${HOME}/${MAJORDOMO_USER}.
|
|
Look in ${PREFIX}/share/doc/majordomo for information and see
|
|
the files and directories for an example list (example-l) in
|
|
${PREFIX}/share/examples/majordomo. Pay attention to the
|
|
permissions on the files and directories.
|
|
|
|
- add a .forward file in ${HOME}/${MAJORDOMO_USER} (or an
|
|
appropriate alias) so administrative mail to
|
|
${MAJORDOMO_USER} gets redirected properly.
|
|
|
|
- install majordomo aliases for sendmail.
|
|
For example, create /etc/aliases.majordomo following the
|
|
example in ${PREFIX}/share/examples/majordomo and add it to
|
|
your sendmail configuration. This can be done by adding a
|
|
line similar to the following to /etc/sendmail.cf :
|
|
|
|
OA/etc/aliases.majordomo (for 8.6.x Sendmail),
|
|
|
|
O AliasFile=/etc/aliases,/etc/aliases.majordomo (for 8.7.x and up),
|
|
|
|
or a line similar to the following to your m4 macros file:
|
|
|
|
define(`ALIAS_FILE',`/etc/aliases,/etc/aliases.majordomo')
|
|
|
|
- if the group for ${MAJORDOMO_USER} (${MAJORDOMO_GROUP}) is not
|
|
daemon, add ${MAJORDOMO_USER} as a trusted user for sendmail.
|
|
This can be done by adding a line similar to the following
|
|
in /etc/sendmail.cf:
|
|
|
|
T${MAJORDOMO_USER}
|
|
|
|
or a line similar to the following to your m4 macros file:
|
|
|
|
define(`confTRUSTED_USERS', ${MAJORDOMO_USER})dnl
|
|
|
|
- be sure to run `newaliases' to create the sendmail database,
|
|
and be sure that sendmail knows about any changes to
|
|
/etc/sendmail.cf (e.g., reboot or restart sendmail)
|
|
|
|
- add entries in /etc/newsyslog.conf to rotate the log in
|
|
${HOME}/${MAJORDOMO_USER}/Log if necessary.
|
|
|
|
Enjoy Majordomo!
