$NetBSD: MESSAGE,v 1.8 2011/01/29 19:39:14 spz Exp $
Before you can use Majordomo, you will need to complete a few steps
manually:
- configure ${MAJORDOMO_CF}.
be sure to change instances of ${HOSTNAME} as appropriate.
- create lists in ${HOME}
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} (or an
appropriate alias) so administrative mail to
${MAJORDOMO_USER} gets redirected properly.
- install majordomo aliases for your mail server software.
For example, create ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/aliases following the
example in ${PREFIX}/share/examples/majordomo and add it to
your mailer configuration.
For sendmail, add a line similar to the following to
/etc/sendmail.cf :
OA${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/aliases (for 8.6.x Sendmail),
O AliasFile=/etc/mail/aliases,${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/aliases
(for 8.7.x and up),
or a line similar to the following to your m4 macros file:
define(`ALIAS_FILE',`/etc/mail/aliases,${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/aliases')
For postfix, add eg hash:${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/aliases
to the alias_maps and alias_database parameters in main.cf
- for sendmail, if the group for ${MAJORDOMO_USER} (${MAJORDOMO_GROUP}) is not
daemon, add ${MAJORDOMO_USER} as a trusted user for your mailer.
This can be done by adding a line similar to the following
in /etc/sendmail.cf:
T${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 aliases database,
and be sure that your mailer has reloaded its config
- add entries in /etc/newsyslog.conf to rotate the log in
${HOME}/Log if necessary.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ UPDATERS NOTICE +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
for resend, archive, bounce-remind, digest, request-answer and medit, the
environment setting for majordomo.cf now overrides the value given on the
command line with -C; config-test now only checks the compiled-in config file
location.
This is a cheap (and ugly) fix for a vulnerability. Since that environment
variable is compiled into the wrapper program, the listed perl programs
will be locked to ${MAJORDOMO_CF} when started via the wrapper.
Enjoy Majordomo!
