I have had access to sendmail source for a while, but hadn't wanted to do anything with it because I wasn't sure if I needed a source license of some source or not; obviously I didn't look at the code enough. Now, the question comes up of how to build it for System V, specifically a UNIX PC. I played around with it a bit, turning off most features to avoid obvious Berkeleyisms, but it still won't go. Any suggestions on an easy way to do this, or is it guaranteed hard labor? (No, I don't *need* it, just wanted something else to hack on.) -- Karl Swartz |UUCP {gatech!emoryu1,uunet!dasys1}!ditka!kls 1-505/667-2402 (work) |ARPA rt1!ditka!kls@hc.dspo.gov 1-505/672-3113 (home) |BIX kswartz "I never let my schooling get in the way of my education."
