Make sendmail : don't know how to make .cf.

G

gemjack

Firstly I a real newbie to FreeBSD so assume I know nothing. I'm trying to create SMTP Auth, and one of the steps is to make the .mc file compile too create an update version of .cf file. When I try to run make I get the following errors,

Code: 
# cd /etc/mail
# make
make: don't know how to make .cf. Stop
#
# make istall all
make: don't know how to make istall. Stop

Firstly am I doing something wrong, and been plain stupid, if not I would be really grateful of any help
 
Should have included the files in the directory...

Code: 
# cd /etc/mail
# ls -l

The first time you run make in /etc/mail, it creates a set of .mc and .cf files based on your hostname. The error looks like you haven't set hostname. Normally that's in /etc/rc.conf.
 
Code: 
hostmame=AsteriskPBX01.gemjack
keymap="uk.iso"
ifconfig_bge0="inet 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="192.168.0.1"
sshd_enable="yes"
inet_enable="yes"
zaptel_enable="yes"
sendmail_enable="yes"
saslauthd_enable="yes"

Host is declared in the first line, any other idea's?
 
Ops, corrections, quick restart of the system, and its all working, teach to more careful, thanks so much for your help!! Knew is would something stupid I'd done
