I'm putting sendmail 5.64 on a MicroVAX3600 running Ultrix 3.1. Sendmail compiles easily & seems to work, but I'd like to install the binmail that was included, as well. [There seems to be no way to get the binmail furnished with Ultrix to cope with /usr/spool/mail set to anything but mode 777.] Anyway, binmail calls mkstemp(), and it isn't in the sendmail distribution nor in our system libraries. Can some kind soul either point me to the source for mkstemp or describe what it's supposed to do? It appears to take a string "/tmp/maXXXXX" and return a file descriptor. I suppose the X's get replaced by a pid... Thanks, Jon Brewster (jjb@cs.wayne.edu)
