sendmail and spf-milter help request
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi,
I'm clearly missing something in the installation of spf-milter. I
have a Red Hat Enterprise v3 machine running sendmail-8.12.11-3.3.
I've installed the sendmail source from Red Hat, built and installed
sendmail-milter, Net::CIDR::Lite, NET::DNS, Sys::Hostname::Long,
MLDBM, mail-spf and mail-srs. I've created a milter user and set
them to own /var/spf-milter. And I had sendmail.mc configured to
add the line mentioned in the installation instructions to sendmail.cf.
But I had no luck finding sendmail-milter.pl, I did see spfd and
was able to start that listing to the default port, but when I tried
to use a path (as the milter definition seems to imply) I get this
error message:
Can't call method "accept" on an undefined value at /usr/bin/spfd
line 163
Is there anyone who can shed any light on this for me?
Thanks,
-David

Note that for typical sendmail set-ups you will need to place a link to
the script in

/usr/adm/sm.bin

or whatever is compiled into your sendmail.

Jeffery,
Thank you very much, that seems to work. Sorry I missed it the
first time. I guess I just thought I had everything downloaded and
was following the install instruction rather than seeing that very
clear link on the spf.pobox.com downloads page.
It seems to work without the link you mentioned (perhaps because
I'm running it as the milter user rather than smmsp?). At any rate
thanks again for the help.
-David

Actually my advice was unnecessary because I was talking nonsense.
Some SRS stuff (non-milter stuff) requires that executables appear in
sendmail's authorized executable directory. SPF has no such
requirement.

(When will the sendmail people decide that all milter filesystem
sockets appear in some hardcoded directory is anybody's guess).
