HowTo edit Sendmail banner and installing SSH

[jok llamera]

fellas,

Any idea on how to edit Sendmail banner. The banner that would appear while telneting to port 25. FYI, I already have commented that options on sendmail.cf but nothing happens. I guess I need to rebuild the sendmail.cf but I don't know how to do it on HP. Please help! Im tired of HP-UX, a lot of requirements and no work around. I came from SUN and its easy on there.

For SSH,can I directly installted the source code to HP-UX?

thanks,
jok's

Hi Jok,

You can install either a binary or source code distribution of SSH on your system. A binary distrib of openssh can be found at http://hpux.tn.tudelft.nl/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/openssh-2.5.1p1/

I'm not sure but you may have to install openssl as well.

If you want to build the binary yourself, you'll have to install gcc and binutils because the HPUX bundled C-compiler is only intended to be used to compile the kernel.

Don't know about the sendmail stuff. The templates for sendmail.cf can be found at (I think) /usr/newconfig/etc/mail/cf/cf.

Regards,

Vincent

The option you want is SmtpGreetingMessage in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
