What is the latest version of sendmail for 11.11?

[John Goetz]

Where can I obtain the latest version and is there any specific instructions doing an upgrade to this version? Also are they any configuration files that I should make copies of beforehand?

Make backups of /etc/mail/sendmail.cf and /usr/sbin/sendmail

Hi John,


HP-UX 11.20 comes with sendmail version 8.11.1.
HP-UX 11.11 comes with sendmail version 8.9.3.1.
HP-UX 11.00 and 10.20 come with sendmail version 8.7.1.1.
HP-UX 10.00/01/10 come with sendmail version 5.65.

Use what(1) to determine what version of sendmail is installed:

$ what /usr/sbin/sendmail | grep version
/usr/sbin/sendmail:
version.c 8.9.3.1 (Berkeley) 10/01/2000

There are several patches available for sendmail:

11.11: PHNE_25184 - provides a couple bug fixes
11.00: PHNE_24419 - upgrades sendmail to v8.9.3.1 and provides a
bunch of bug fixes
10.20: PHNE_25183 - upgrades sendmail to v8.9.3.1 and provides a
bunch of bug fixes

One can download a free copy of sendmail 8.11.1 for 11.x or sendmail
v8.8.6 for HP-UX 9.x or 10.0x/10 from <>

Documentation also u can find there.

Regards,
Syam

I have heard of a long promised 8.12 based release, and even gotten on a list of volunteer beta testers.

I have however heard nothing about the actual release.
