Patch Name: PHNE_7525 Patch Description: s700_800 10.09 [Lev36] Sendmail does not send non-root msg Creation Date: 96/06/24 Post Date: 96/06/26 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.09 s800: 10.09 Products: N/A Filesets: InternetSrvcs.INETSVCS-RUN Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Release Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHNE_7525 Symptoms: PHNE_7525: * When a message is in the message queue and owned by non-root, it is never sent out. Defect Description: PHNE_7525: * On CMW, sendmail is not set to suid to root, and it is owned by bin. But the implementation of the sendmail expects all queued message to be owned by root. On regular 10.0 HP-UX, sendmail has suid to root, where CMW does not allow suit to "root". Some special privileges will be give to sendmail instead.

Back up your system before installing a patch. 2. Login as root. 3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory. 4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch: cd /tmp sh PHNE_7525 5a. For a standalone system, run swinstall to install the patch: swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x match_target=true \ -s /tmp/PHNE_7525.depot 5b. For a homogeneous NFS Diskless cluster run swcluster on the server to install the patch on the server and the clients: swcluster -i -b This will invoke swcluster in the interactive mode and force all clients to be shut down. WARNING: All cluster clients must be shut down prior to the patch installation. Installing the patch while the clients are booted is unsupported and can lead to serious problems. The swcluster command will invoke an swinstall session in which you must specify: alternate root path - default is /export/shared_root/OS_700 source depot path - /tmp/PHNE_7525.depot To complete the installation, select the patch by choosing "Actions -> Match What Target Has" and then "Actions -> Install" from the Menubar. 5c. For a heterogeneous NFS Diskless cluster: - run swinstall on the server as in step 5a to install the patch on the cluster server. - run swcluster on the server as in step 5b to install the patch on the cluster clients. The cluster clients must be shut down as described in step 5b. By default swinstall will archive the original software in /var/adm/sw/patch/PHNE_7525. If you do not wish to retain a copy of the original software, you can create an empty file named /var/adm/sw/patch/PATCH_NOSAVE. Warning: If this file exists when a patch is installed, the patch cannot be deinstalled. Please be careful when using this feature. It is recommended that you move the PHNE_7525.text file to /var/adm/sw/patch for future reference. To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the tape drive, use the command: dd if=/tmp/PHNE_7525.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k Special Installation Instructions: None
