- installed RHEL 4 - configured sasl2 to run (chkconfig), edited /usr/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf and added line:
auto_transition:true
- copied /etc/mail files from puremsg and remade sendmail.cf - modified /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf for local mods - ran the following 2 commands to generate server key without password
/usr/bin/openssl genrsa 1024 > /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key
chmod go-rwx /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key
