Hello, I am sort of new to this news group so please excuse me if this topic has been discussed previously. But what I was wondering was: if IDA sendmail has been ported to a Silicon Graphics computer. I usually work on Suns, but we now have some SGIs that we want to be able to send/receive mail between the Suns and SGIs. We are running OS 3.3.2 and are not running NIS (formerly YP) nor are we running DNS. I found that the SGI sendmail was flaky; so I tried to compile an older (5.6?) IDA sendmail, and it failed miserably. Has anyone either successfully or unsuccessfully done a IDA sendmail port? If unsuccessful, why? I would rather not reinvent the wheel. chuck smoko PS: This may be a repost. We had trouble with our news server yesterday. |^^^^^^| | | | | | (o)(o) _______________________ @ _) __/ | | ,___| /___ Don't have a cow, man! | | / \_______________________| /____\ / \ csmoko@relay.nswc.navy.mil __ __ () / ) / /) / ) /\ / / /_ __. __ // _ _ /--/ / ) ____ ____/_ __ (__/ / /_(_(_/ (_(/_(<_/_)_ / ( o /__/__/) ) )_(_) / <_(_)

I usually In November and December (1990) Paul Pomes did a lot of work getting sendmail/IDA to run on many platforms. I am almost certain SGI was one of these.

Neil is correct on this - we are running 5.65a+IDA on our SGI here. It came up easily. The new release he mentions is 5.65b+IDA but I expect no problems.
