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 rerun sendmail)
- add entries in /etc/newsyslog.conf to rotate the log in
@HOME@/@MAJORDOMO_USER@/Log if necessary
Enjoy Majordomo!
