Has anyone gotten Sendmail 5.8 (with Daemon support) to work under Microport
Unix? I realize that it would require BSD-style networking support, but
from a cursory glance at libtcp.a and the sources, it seems that all the
necessary functions are there.
We're running Microport Unix (386) version 3.0e1 with the networking utilities.
Thanks in advance,

Yep, I got it running with the Micom/Interlan TCP package about 6 months ago. Unfortunately, I didn't keep track of the changes I had to make, but most of them were stright-forward; mostly just changing include file names. There are two major gotchas to watch out for that I recall: sendmail has a function with the same name as one of the streams library routines that is called by the socket library - you need to change sendmail's function name, and there is a problem with using fdopen to associate two streams with the same file descriptor - you need to dup the fd to avoid confusing stdio. I also kludged up a quick replacement for the Berkeley syslog stuff that just writes to a file - you could probably do the same or I could send it to you. If I can be of any assistance, just email. ---- Larry Jones UUCP: uunet!sdrc!scjones SDRC scjones@sdrc.UU.NET 2000 Eastman Dr. BIX: ltl Milford, OH 45150 AT&T: (513) 576-2070 "When all else fails, read the directions."
