Hi
I recently installed exim-3.36 from an rpm, but on testing the
installation
> Exim -C ../configure -bV
I get the following error:
2005-01-11 14:42:55 Exim configuration error
router lookuphost: cannot find router driver "lookuphost" in line 242
Any advice on what might cause this error is gratefully appreciated..
I have included the original Makefile used when building the rpm and
also the relevant section of the exim run-time configuration file.

# TRANPORTS CONFIGURATION #
######################################################################
# This transport is used for local delivery to user mailboxes. By
default
# it will be run under the uid and gid of the local user, and requires
# the sticky bit to be set on the /var/mail directory. Some systems use
# the alternative approach of running mail deliveries under a particular
# group instead of using the sticky bit. The commented options below
show
# how this can be done.

# delivery error. Set return_fail_output instead if you want this to
happen
# only when the pipe fails to complete normally.

# End of Exim configuration file
Buildtime Configuration (Local/Makefile)
##################################################
# The Exim mail transport agent #
##################################################
# This is the template for Exim's main build-time configuration file. It
# contains settings that are independent of any operating system. These
are
# things that are mostly sysadmin choices. The items below are divided
into
# those you must specify, those you probably want to specify, those you
might
# often want to specify, and those that you almost never need to
mention.
# Edit this file and save the result to a file called Local/Makefile
within the
# Exim distribution directory before running the "make" command.
# Things that depend on the operating system have default settings in
# OS/Makefile-Default, but these are overridden for some OS by files
called
# called OS/Makefile-<osname>. You can further override these by
creating files
# called Local/Makefile-<osname>, where "<osname>" stands for the name
of your
# operating system - look at the names in the OS directory to see which
names
# are recognized.
# However, if you are building Exim for a single OS only, you don't need
to
# worry about setting up Local/Makefile-<osname>. Any build-time
configuration
# settings you require can in fact be placed in the one file called
# Local/Makefile. It is only if you are building for several OS from the
same
# source files that you need to worry about splitting off your own
OS-dependent
# settings into separate files. (There's more explanation about how this
all
# works in the toplevel README file, under "Modifying the building
process", as
# well as in the Exim specification.)
# One OS-specific thing that may need to be changed is the command for
running
# the C compiler; the overall default is gcc, but some OS Makefiles
specify cc.
# You can override anything that is set by putting CC=whatever in your
# Local/Makefile.
# NOTE: You should never need to edit any of the distributed Makefiles;
all
# overriding can be done in your Local/Makefile(s). This will make it
easier
# for you when the next release comes along.
# The location of the X11 libraries is something else that is quite
variable
# even between different versions of the same operating system (and
indeed
# there are different versions of X11 as well, of course). The four
settings
# concerned here are X11, XINCLUDE, XLFLAGS (linking flags) and
X11_LD_LIB
# (dynamic run-time library). You need not worry about X11 unless you
want to
# compile the Exim monitor utility. Exim itself does not use X11.
# Another area of variability between systems is the type and location
of the
# DBM library package. Exim has support for ndbm, gdbm, tdb, and
Berkeley DB.
# By default the code assumes ndbm; this often works with gdbm or DB,
provided
# they are correctly installed, via their compatibility interfaces.
However,
# Exim can also be configured to use the native calls for Berkeley DB
(obsolete
# versions 1.85, 2.x, 3.x, or the current 4.x version) and also for
gdbm.
# For some operating systems, a default DBM library (other than ndbm) is
# selected by a setting in the OS-specific Makefile. Most modern OS now
have
# a DBM library installed as standard, and in many cases this will be
selected
# for you by the OS-specific configuration. If Exim compiles without any
# problems, you probably do not have to worry about the DBM library. If
you
# do want or need to change it, you should first read the discussion in
the
# file doc/dbm.discuss.txt, which also contains instructions for testing
Exim's
# interface to the DBM library.
# In Local/Makefiles blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored.
It is
# also permitted to use the # character to add a comment to a setting,
for
# example
#
# EXIM_GID=42 # the "mail" group
#
# However, with some versions of "make" this works only if there is no
white
# space between the end of the setting and the #, so perhaps it is best
# avoided. A consequence of this facility is that it is not possible to
have
# the # character present in any setting, but I can't think of any cases
where
# this would be wanted.

# Exim will not build unless you specify BIN_DIRECTORY, CONFIGURE_FILE,
and
# EXIM_USER. You also need EXIM_GROUP if EXIM_USER specifies a uid by
number.
# If you don't specify SPOOL_DIRECTORY, Exim won't fail to build.
However, it
# really is a very good idea to specify it here rather than at run time.
This
# is particularly true if you let the logs go to their default location
in the
# spool directory, because it means that the location of the logs is
known
# before Exim has read the run time configuration file.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# BIN_DIRECTORY defines where the exim binary will be installed by "make
# install". The path is also used internally by Exim when it needs to
re-invoke
# itself, either to send an error message, or to recover root privilege.
Exim's
# utility binaries and scripts are also installed in this directory.
There is
# no "standard" place for the binary directory. Some people like to keep
all
# the Exim files under one directory such as /usr/exim; others just let
the
# Exim binaries go into an existing directory such as /usr/sbin or
# /usr/local/sbin. The installation script will try to create this
directory,
# and any superior directories, if they do not exist.
BIN_DIRECTORY=/opt/exim/bin
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# CONFIGURE_FILE defines where Exim's run time configuration file is to
be
# found. It is the complete pathname for the file, not just a directory.
The
# location of all other run time files and directories can be changed in
the
# run time configuration file. There is a lot of variety in the choice
of
# location in different OS, and in the preferences of different
sysadmins. Some
# common locations are in /etc or /etc/mail or /usr/local/etc or
# /usr/local/etc/mail. Another possibility is to keep all the Exim files
under
# a single directory such as /usr/exim. Whatever you choose, the
installation
# script will try to make the directory and any superior directories if
they
# don't exist. It will also install a default runtime configuration if
this
# file does not exist.
CONFIGURE_FILE=/opt/exim/configure
# It is possible to specify a colon-separated list of files for
CONFIGURE_FILE.
# In this case, Exim will use the first of them that exists when it is
run.
# However, if a list is specified, the installation script no longer
tries to
# make superior directories or to install a default runtime
configuration.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The Exim binary must normally be setuid root, so that it starts
executing as
# root, but (depending on the options with which it is called) it does
not
# always need to retain the root privilege. These settings define the
user and
# group that is used for Exim processes when they no longer need to be
root. In
# particular, this applies when receiving messages and when doing remote
# deliveries. (Local deliveries run as various non-root users, typically
as the
# owner of a local mailbox.) Specifying these values as root is very
strongly
# discouraged.
EXIM_USER=ref:exim
# If you specify EXIM_USER as a name, this is looked up at build time,
and the
# uid number is built into the binary. However, you can specify that
this
# lookup is deferred until runtime. In this case, it is the name that is
built
# into the binary. You can do this by a setting of the form:
# EXIM_USER=ref:exim
# In other words, put "ref:" in front of the user name. If you set
EXIM_USER
# like this, any value specified for EXIM_GROUP is also passed "by
reference".
# Although this costs a bit of resource at runtime, it is convenient to
use
# this feature when building binaries that are to be run on multiple
systems
# where the name may refer to different uids. It also allows you to
build Exim
# on a system where there is no Exim user defined.
# If the setting of EXIM_USER is numeric (e.g. EXIM_USER=42), there must
# also be a setting of EXIM_GROUP. If, on the other hand, you use a name
# for EXIM_USER (e.g. EXIM_USER=exim), you don't need to set EXIM_GROUP
unless
# you want to use a group other than the default group for the given
user.
#EXIM_GROUP=42
# Many sites define a user called "exim", with an appropriate default
group,
# and use
#
# EXIM_USER=exim
#
# while leaving EXIM_GROUP unspecified (commented out).
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# SPOOL_DIRECTORY defines the directory where all the data for messages
in
# transit is kept. It is strongly recommended that you define it here,
though
# it is possible to leave this till the run time configuration.
# Exim creates the spool directory if it does not exist. The owner and
group
# will be those defined by EXIM_USER and EXIM_GROUP, and this also
applies to
# all the files and directories that are created in the spool directory.
# Almost all installations choose this:
SPOOL_DIRECTORY=/var/spool/exim

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# These settings determine which individual router drivers are included
in the
# Exim binary. There are no defaults in the code; those routers that are
wanted
# must be defined here by setting the appropriate variables to the value
"yes".
# Including a router in the binary does not cause it to be used
automatically.
# It has also to be configured in the run time configuration file. By

# LOOKUP_WILDLSEARCH=yes
# LOOKUP_NWILDLSEARCH=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# If you have set LOOKUP_LDAP=yes, you should set LDAP_LIB_TYPE to
indicate
# which LDAP library you have. Unfortunately, though most of their
functions
# are the same, there are minor differences. Currently Exim knows about
four

that comes
# with Solaris 7 onwards. Uncomment whichever of these you are using.
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=OPENLDAP1
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=OPENLDAP2
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=NETSCAPE
# LDAP_LIB_TYPE=SOLARIS
# If you don't set any of these, Exim assumes the original University of
# Michigan (OpenLDAP 1) library.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Additional libraries and include directories may be required for some
# lookup styles (e.g. LDAP, MYSQL or PGSQL). LOOKUP_LIBS is included
only on

# The items in this section are those that are commonly changed
according to
# the sysadmin's preferences, but whose defaults are often acceptable.
The
# first five are concerned with security issues, where differing levels
of
# paranoia are appropriate in different environments. Sysadmins also
vary in
# their views on appropriate levels of defence in these areas. If you do
not
# understand these issues, go with the defaults, which are used by many
sites.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Although Exim is normally a setuid program, owned by root, it refuses
to run
# local deliveries as root by default. There is a runtime option called
# "never_users" which lists the users that must never be used for local
# deliveries. There is also the setting below, which provides a list
that
# cannot be overridden at runtime. This guards against problems caused
by
# unauthorized changes to the runtime configuration. You are advised not
to
# remove "root" from this option, but you can add other users if you
want. The
# list is colon-separated.
FIXED_NEVER_USERS=root
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# By default, Exim insists that its configuration file be owned either
by root
# or by the Exim user. You can specify one additional permitted owner
here.
# CONFIGURE_OWNER=
# If you specify CONFIGURE_OWNER as a name, this is looked up at build
time,
# and the uid number is built into the binary. However, you can specify
that
# this lookup is deferred until runtime. In this case, it is the name
that is
# built into the binary. You can do this by a setting of the form:
# CONFIGURE_OWNER=ref:mail
# In other words, put "ref:" in front of the user name. Although this
costs a
# bit of resource at runtime, it is convenient to use this feature when
# building binaries that are to be run on multiple systems where the
name may
# refer to different uids. It also allows you to build Exim on a system
where
# the relevant user is not defined.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The -C option allows Exim to be run with an alternate runtime
configuration
# file. When this is used by root or the Exim user, root privilege is
retained
# by the binary (for any other caller, it is dropped). You can restrict
the
# location of alternate configurations by defining a prefix below. Any
file
# used with -C must then start with this prefix (except that /dev/null
is also
# permitted if the caller is root, because that is used in the install
script).
# If the prefix specifies a directory that is owned by root, a
compromise of
# the Exim account does not permit arbitrary alternate configurations to
be
# used. The prefix can be more restrictive than just a directory (the
second
# example).
# ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=/some/directory/
# ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=/some/directory/exim.conf-
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# If you uncomment the following line, only root may use the -C or -D
options
# without losing root privilege. The -C option specifies an alternate
runtime
# configuration file, and the -D option changes macro values in the
runtime
# configuration. Uncommenting this line restricts what can be done with
these
# options. A call to receive a message (either one-off or via a daemon)
cannot
# successfully continue to deliver it, because the re-exec of Exim to
regain
# root privilege will fail, owing to the use of -C or -D by the Exim
user.
# However, you can still use -C for testing (as root) if you do separate
Exim
# calls for receiving a message and subsequently delivering it.
# ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Uncommenting this option disables the use of the -D command line
option,
# which changes the values of macros in the runtime configuration file.
# This is another protection against somebody breaking into the Exim
account.
# DISABLE_D_OPTION=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Exim has support for the AUTH (authentication) extension of the SMTP
# protocol, as defined by RFC 2554. If you don't know what SMTP
authentication
# is, you probably won't want to include this code, so you should leave
these
# settings commented out. If you do want to make use of SMTP
authentication,
# you must uncomment at least one of the following, so that appropriate
code is
# included in the Exim binary. You will then need to set up the run time
# configuration to make use of the mechanism(s) selected.
# AUTH_CRAM_MD5=yes
# AUTH_CYRUS_SASL=yes
# AUTH_PLAINTEXT=yes
# AUTH_SPA=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# If you specified AUTH_CYRUS_SASL above, you should ensure that you
have the
# Cyrus SASL library installed before trying to build Exim, and you
probably
# want to uncomment the following line:
# AUTH_LIBS=-lsasl2
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# When Exim is decoding MIME "words" in header lines, most commonly for
use
# in the $header_xxx expansion, it converts any foreign character sets
to the
# one that is set in the headers_charset option. The default setting is
# defined by this setting:
HEADERS_CHARSET="ISO-8859-1"
# If you are going to make use of $header_xxx expansions in your
configuration
# file, or if your users are going to use them in filter files, and the
normal
# character set on your host is something other than ISO-8859-1, you
might
# like to specify a different default here. This value can be overridden
in
# the runtime configuration, and it can also be overridden in individual
filter
# files.
#
# IMPORTANT NOTE: The iconv() function is needed for character code
# conversions. Please see the next item...
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Character code conversions are possible only if the iconv() function
is
# installed on your operating system. There are two places in Exim where
this
# is relevant: (a) The $header_xxx expansion (see the previous item),
and (b)
# the Sieve filter support. For those OS where iconv() is known to be
installed
# as standard, the file in OS/Makefile-xxxx contains
#
# HAVE_ICONV=yes
#
# If you are not using one of those systems, but have installed iconv(),
you
# need to uncomment that line above. In some cases, you may find that
iconv()
# and its header file are not in the default places. You might need to
use
# something like this:
#
# HAVE_ICONV=yes
# CFLAGS=-O -I/usr/local/include
# EXTRALIBS_EXIM=-L/usr/local/lib -liconv
#
# but of course there may need to be other things in CFLAGS and
EXTRALIBS_EXIM
# as well.
EXTRALIBS=-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.3/lib -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib
-lpthread
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The passwords for user accounts are normally encrypted with the
crypt()
# function. Comparisons with encrypted passwords can be done using
Exim's
# "crypteq" expansion operator. (This is commonly used as part of the
# configuration of an authenticator for use with SMTP AUTH.) At least
one
# operating system has an extended function called crypt16(), which uses
up to
# 16 characters of a password (the normal crypt() uses only the first
8). Exim
# supports the use of crypt16() as well as crypt().
# You can always indicate a crypt16-encrypted password by preceding it
with
# "{crypt16}". If you want the default handling (without any preceding
# indicator) to use crypt16(), uncomment the following line:
# DEFAULT_CRYPT=crypt16
# If you do that, you can still access the basic crypt() function by
preceding
# an encrypted password with "{crypt}". For more details, see the
description
# of the "crypteq" condition in the manual chapter on string expansions.
# Since most operating systems do not include a crypt16() function
(yet?), Exim
# has one of its own, which it uses unless HAVE_CRYPT16 is defined.
Normally,
# that will be set in an OS-specific Makefile for the OS that have such
a
# function, so you should not need to bother with it.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Exim can be built to support the SMTP STARTTLS command, which
implements
# Transport Layer Security using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). To do this,
you
# must install the OpenSSL library package or the GnuTLS library. Exim
contains
# no cryptographic code of its own. Uncomment the following lines if you
want
# to build Exim with TLS support. If you don't know what this is all
about,
# leave these settings commented out.
# This setting is required for any TLS support (either OpenSSL or
GnuTLS)
# SUPPORT_TLS=yes
# Uncomment this setting if you are using OpenSSL
# TLS_LIBS=-lssl -lcrypto
# Uncomment these settings if you are using GnuTLS
# USE_GNUTLS=yes
# TLS_LIBS=-lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt
# If you are running Exim as a server, note that just building it with
TLS
# support is not all you need to do. You also need to set up a suitable
# certificate, and tell Exim about it by means of the tls_certificate
# and tls_privatekey run time options. You also need to set
tls_advertise_hosts
# to specify the hosts to which Exim advertises TLS support. On the
other hand,
# if you are running Exim only as a client, building it with TLS support
# is all you need to do.
# Additional libraries and include files are required for both OpenSSL
and
# GnuTLS. The TLS_LIBS settings above assume that the libraries are
installed
# with all your other libraries. If they are in a special directory, you
may
# need something like
# TLS_LIBS=-L/usr/local/openssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto
# or
# TLS_LIBS=-L/opt/gnu/lib -lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt
# TLS_LIBS is included only on the command for linking Exim itself, not
on any
# auxiliary programs. If the include files are not in a standard place,
you can
# set TLS_INCLUDE to specify where they are, for example:
# TLS_INCLUDE=-I/usr/local/openssl/include/
# or
# TLS_INCLUDE=-I/opt/gnu/include
# You don't need to set TLS_INCLUDE if the relevant directories are
already
# specified in INCLUDE.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The default distribution of Exim contains only the plain text form of
the
# documentation. Other forms are available separately. If you want to
install
# the documentation in "info" format, first fetch the Texinfo
documentation
# sources from the ftp directory and unpack them, which should create
files
# with the extension "texinfo" in the doc directory. You may find that
the
# version number of the texinfo files is different to your Exim version
number,
# because the main documentation isn't updated as often as the code. For
# example, if you have Exim version 4.43, the source tarball upacks into
a
# directory called exim-4.43, but the texinfo tarball unpacks into
exim-4.40.
# In this case, move the contents of exim-4.40/doc into exim-4.43/doc
after you
# have unpacked them. Then set INFO_DIRECTORY to the location of your
info
# directory. This varies from system to system, but is often
/usr/share/info.
# Once you have done this, "make install" will build the info files and
# install them in the directory you have defined.
# INFO_DIRECTORY=/usr/share/info
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Exim log directory and files: Exim creates several log files inside a
# single log directory. You can define the directory and the form of the
# log file name here. If you do not set anything, Exim creates a
directory
# called "log" inside its spool directory (see SPOOL_DIRECTORY above)
and uses
# the filenames "mainlog", "paniclog", and "rejectlog". If you want to
change
# this, you can set LOG_FILE_PATH to a path name containing one
occurrence of
# %s. This will be replaced by one of the strings "main", "panic", or
"reject"
# to form the final file names. Some installations may want something
like this:
# LOG_FILE_PATH=/var/log/exim_%slog
# which results in files with names /var/log/exim_mainlog, etc. The
directory
# in which the log files are placed must exist; Exim does not try to
create
# it for itself. It is also your responsibility to ensure that Exim is
capable
# of writing files using this path name. The Exim user (see EXIM_USER
above)
# must be able to create and update files in the directory you have
specified.
# You can also configure Exim to use syslog, instead of or as well as
log
# files, by settings such as these
# LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog
# LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog:/var/log/exim_%slog
# The first of these uses only syslog; the second uses syslog and also
writes
# to log files. Do not include white space in such a setting as it
messes up
# the building process.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# When logging to syslog, the following option caters for syslog
replacements
# that are able to accept log entries longer than the 1024 characters
allowed
# by RFC 3164. It is up to you to make sure your syslog daemon can
handle this.
# Non-printable characters are usually unacceptable regardless, so log
entries
# are still split on newline characters.
# SYSLOG_LONG_LINES=yes
# If you are not interested in the process identifier (pid) of the Exim
that is
# making the call to syslog, then comment out the following line.
SYSLOG_LOG_PID=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Cycling log files: this variable specifies the maximum number of old
# log files that are kept by the exicyclog log-cycling script. You don't
have
# to use exicyclog. If your operating system has other ways of cycling
log
# files, you can use them instead. The exicyclog script isn't run by
default;
# you have to set up a cron job for it if you want it.
EXICYCLOG_MAX=10
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The compress command is used by the exicyclog script to compress old
log
# files. Both the name of the command and the suffix that it adds to
files
# need to be defined here. See also the EXICYCLOG_MAX configuration.
COMPRESS_COMMAND=/usr/bin/gzip
COMPRESS_SUFFIX=gz
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# If the exigrep utility is fed compressed log files, it tries to
uncompress
# them using this command.
ZCAT_COMMAND=/usr/bin/zcat
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Compiling in support for embedded Perl: If you want to be able to
# use Perl code in Exim's string manipulation language and you have Perl
# (version 5.004 or later) installed, set EXIM_PERL to perl.o. Using
embedded
# Perl costs quite a lot of resources. Only do this if you really need
it.
# EXIM_PERL=perl.o
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Exim has support for PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules), a
facility
# which is available in the latest releases of Solaris and in some
GNU/Linux
# distributions (see
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/). The
Exim
# support, which is intended for use in conjunction with the SMTP AUTH
# facilities, is included only when requested by the following setting:
# SUPPORT_PAM=yes
# You probably need to add -lpam to EXTRALIBS, and in some releases of
# GNU/Linux -ldl is also needed.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Support for authentication via Radius is also available. The Exim
support,
# which is intended for use in conjunction with the SMTP AUTH
facilities,
# is included only when requested by setting the following parameter to
the
# location of your Radius configuration file:
# RADIUS_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf
# RADIUS_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/radius.conf
# If you have set RADIUS_CONFIG_FILE, you should also set one of these
to
# indicate which RADIUS library is used:
#
# RADIUSCLIENT is the radiusclient library; you probably need to add
# -libradiusclient to EXTRALIBS
#
# RADLIB is the Radius library that comes with FreeBSD (the header file
is
# called radlib.h); you probably need to add -lradius to EXTRALIBS
# RADIUS_LIB_TYPE=RADIUSCLIENT
# RADIUS_LIB_TYPE=RADLIB
# If you don't set one of these, Exim assumes the radiusclient library.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Support for authentication via the Cyrus SASL pwcheck daemon is
available.
# Note, however, that pwcheck is now deprecated in favour of saslauthd
(see
# next item). The Exim support for pwcheck, which is intented for use in
# conjunction with the SMTP AUTH facilities, is included only when
requested by
# setting the following parameter to the location of the pwcheck
daemon's
# socket.
#
# There is no need to install all of SASL on your system. You just need
to run
# ./configure --with-pwcheck, cd to the pwcheck directory within the
sources,
# make and make install. You must create the socket directory (default
# /var/pwcheck) and chown it to exim's user and group. Once you have
installed
# pwcheck, you should arrange for it to be started by root at boot time.
# CYRUS_PWCHECK_SOCKET=/var/pwcheck/pwcheck
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Support for authentication via the Cyrus SASL saslauthd daemon is
available.
# The Exim support, which is intented for use in conjunction with the
SMTP AUTH
# facilities, is included only when requested by setting the following
# parameter to the location of the saslauthd daemon's socket.
#
# There is no need to install all of SASL on your system. You just need
to run
# ./configure --with-saslauthd (and any other options you need, for
example, to
# select or deselect authentication mechanisms), cd to the saslauthd
directory
# within the sources, make and make install. You must create the socket
# directory (default /var/state/saslauthd) and chown it to exim's user
and
# group. Once you have installed saslauthd, you should arrange for it to
be
# started by root at boot time.
# CYRUS_SASLAUTHD_SOCKET=/var/state/saslauthd/mux
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# TCP wrappers: If you want to use tcpwrappers from within Exim,
uncomment
# this setting. See the manual section entitled "Use of tcpwrappers" in
the
# chapter on building and installing Exim.
#
# USE_TCP_WRAPPERS=yes
#
# You may well also have to specify a local "include" file and an
additional
# library for TCP wrappers, so you probably need something like this:
#
# USE_TCP_WRAPPERS=yes
# CFLAGS=-O -I/usr/local/include
# EXTRALIBS_EXIM=-L/usr/local/lib -lwrap
#
# but of course there may need to be other things in CFLAGS and
EXTRALIBS_EXIM
# as well.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The default action of the exim_install script (which is run by "make
# install") is to install the Exim binary with a unique name such as
# exim-4.43-1, and then set up a symbolic link called "exim" to
reference it,
# moving the symbolic link from any previous version. If you define
NO_SYMLINK
# (the value doesn't matter), the symbolic link is not created or moved.
You
# will then have to "turn Exim on" by setting up the link manually.
# NO_SYMLINK=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Another default action of the install script is to install a default
runtime
# configuration file if one does not exist. This configuration has a
router for
# expanding system aliases. The default assumes that these aliases are
kept
# in the traditional file called /etc/aliases. If such a file does not
exist,
# the installation script creates one that contains just comments (no
actual
# aliases). The following setting can be changed to specify a different
# location for the system alias file.
SYSTEM_ALIASES_FILE=/etc/aliases
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# There are some testing options (-be, -bt, -bv) that read data from the
# standard input when no arguments are supplied. By default, the input
lines
# are read using the standard fgets() function. This does not support
line
# editing during interactive input (though the terminal's "erase"
character
# works as normal). If your operating system has the readline()
function, and
# in addition supports dynamic loading of library functions, you can
cause
# Exim to use readline() for the -be testing option (only) by
uncommenting the
# following setting. Dynamic loading is used so that the library is
loaded only
# when the -be testing option is given; by the time the loading occurs,
# Exim has given up its root privilege and is running as the calling
user. This
# is the reason why readline() is NOT supported for -bt and -bv, because
Exim
# runs as root or as exim, respectively, for those options. When
USE_READLINE
# is "yes", as well as supporting line editing, a history of input lines
in the
# current run is maintained.
# USE_READLINE=yes

# The settings in this section are available for use in special
circumstances.
# In the vast majority of installations you need not change anything
below.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The following commands live in different places in some OS. Either the
# ultimate default settings, or the OS-specific files should already
point to
# the right place, but they can be overridden here if necessary. These
settings
# are used when building various scripts to ensure that the correct
paths are
# used when the scripts are run. They are not used in the Makefile
itself. Perl
# is not necessary for running Exim unless you set EXIM_PERL (see above)
to get
# it embedded, but there are some utilities that are Perl scripts. If
you
# haven't got Perl, Exim will still build and run; you just won't be
able to
# use those utilities.
# CHOWN_COMMAND=/usr/bin/chown
# CHGRP_COMMAND=/usr/bin/chgrp
# MV_COMMAND=/bin/mv
# RM_COMMAND=/bin/rm
# PERL_COMMAND=/usr/bin/perl
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The following macro can be used to change the command for building a
library
# of functions. By default the "ar" command is used, with options "cq".
# Only in rare circumstances should you need to change this.
# AR=ar cq
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# In some operating systems, the value of the TMPDIR environment
variable
# controls where temporary files are created. Exim does not make use of
# temporary files, except when delivering to MBX mailboxes. However, if
Exim
# calls any external libraries (e.g. DBM libraries), they may use
temporary
# files, and thus be influenced by the value of TMPDIR. For this reason,
when
# Exim starts, it checks the environment for TMPDIR, and if it finds it
is set,
# it replaces the value with what is defined here. Commenting this
setting
# suppresses the check altogether.
TMPDIR="/tmp"
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The following macros can be used to change the default modes that are
used
# by the appendfile transport. In most installations the defaults are
just
# fine, and in any case, you can change particular instances of the
transport
# at run time if you want.
# APPENDFILE_MODE=0600
# APPENDFILE_DIRECTORY_MODE=0700
# APPENDFILE_LOCKFILE_MODE=0600
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# In some installations there may be multiple machines sharing file
systems,
# where a different configuration file is required for Exim on the
different
# machines. If CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_NODE is defined, then Exim will first
look
# for a configuration file whose name is that defined by CONFIGURE_FILE,
# with the node name obtained by uname() tacked on the end, separated by
a
# period (for example, /usr/exim/configure.host.in.some.domain). If this
file
# does not exist, then the bare configuration file name is tried.
# CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_NODE=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# In some esoteric configurations two different versions of Exim are
run,
# with different setuid values, and different configuration files are
required
# to handle the different cases. If CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_EUID is defined,
then
# Exim will first look for a configuration file whose name is that
defined
# by CONFIGURE_FILE, with the effective uid tacked on the end, separated
by
# a period (for eximple, /usr/exim/configure.0). If this file does not
exist,
# then the bare configuration file name is tried. In the case when both
# CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_EUID and CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_NODE are set, four
files
# are tried: <name>.<euid>.<node>, <name>.<node>, <name>.<euid>, and
<name>.
# CONFIGURE_FILE_USE_EUID=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The size of the delivery buffers: These specify the sizes (in bytes)
of
# the buffers that are used when copying a message from the spool to a
# destination. There is rarely any need to change these values.
# DELIVER_IN_BUFFER_SIZE=8192
# DELIVER_OUT_BUFFER_SIZE=8192
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The mode of the database directory: Exim creates a directory called
"db"
# in its spool directory, to hold its databases of hints. This variable
# determines the mode of the created directory. The default value in the
# source is 0750.
# EXIMDB_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Database file mode: The mode of files created in the "db" directory
defaults
# to 0640 in the source, and can be changed here.
# EXIMDB_MODE=0640
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Database lock file mode: The mode of zero-length files created in the
"db"
# directory to use for locking purposes defaults to 0640 in the source,
and
# can be changed here.
# EXIMDB_LOCKFILE_MODE=0640
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# This parameter sets the maximum length of the header portion of a
message
# that Exim is prepared to process. The default setting is one megabyte.
The
# limit exists in order to catch rogue mailers that might connect to
your SMTP
# port, start off a header line, and then just pump junk at it for ever.
The
# message_size_limit option would also catch this, but it may not be
set.
# The value set here is the default; it can be changed at runtime.
# HEADER_MAXSIZE="(1024*1024)"
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The mode of the input directory: The input directory is where messages
are
# kept while awaiting delivery. Exim creates it if necessary, using a
mode
# which can be defined here (default 0750).
# INPUT_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The mode of Exim's log directory, when it is created by Exim inside
the spool
# directory, defaults to 0750 but can be changed here.
# LOG_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The log files themselves are created as required, with a mode that
defaults
# to 0640, but which can be changed here.
# LOG_MODE=0640
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The TESTDB lookup is for performing tests on the handling of lookup
results,
# and is not useful for general running. It should be included only when
# debugging the code of Exim.
# LOOKUP_TESTDB=yes
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# /bin/sh is used by default as the shell in which to run commands that
are
# defined in the makefiles. This can be changed if necessary, by
uncommenting
# this line and specifying another shell, but note that a
Bourne-compatible
# shell is expected.
# MAKE_SHELL=/bin/sh
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The maximum number of named lists of each type (address, domain, host,
and
# local part) can be increased by changing this value. It should be set
to
# a multiple of 16.
# MAX_NAMED_LIST=16
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Network interfaces: Unless you set the local_interfaces option in the
runtime
# configuration file to restrict Exim to certain interfaces only, it
will run
# code to find all the interfaces there are on your host. Unfortunately,
# the call to the OS that does this requires a buffer large enough to
hold
# data for all the interfaces - it was designed in the days when a host
rarely
# had more than three or four interfaces. Nowadays hosts can have very
many
# virtual interfaces running on the same hardware. If you have more than
250
# virtual interfaces, you will need to uncomment this setting and
increase the
# value.
# MAXINTERFACES=250
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Per-message logs: While a message is in the process of being
delivered,
# comments on its progress are written to a message log, for the benefit
of
# human administrators. These logs are held in a directory called
"msglog"
# in the spool directory. Its mode defaults to 0750, but can be changed
here.
# The message log directory is also used for storing files that are used
by
# transports for returning data to a message's sender (see the
"return_output"
# option for transports).
# MSGLOG_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# There are three options which are used when compiling the Perl
interface and
# when linking with Perl. The default values for these are placed
automatically
# at the head of the Makefile by the script which builds it. However, if
you
# want to override them, you can do so here.
# PERL_CC=
# PERL_CCOPTS=
# PERL_LIBS=
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Identifying the daemon: When an Exim daemon starts up, it writes its
pid
# (process id) to a file so that it can easily be identified. The path
of the
# file can be specified here. Some installations may want something like
this:
# PID_FILE_PATH=/var/lock/exim.pid
# If PID_FILE_PATH is not defined, Exim writes a file in its spool
directory
# using the name "exim-daemon.pid".
# If you start up a daemon without the -bd option (for example, with
just
# the -q15m option), a pid file is not written. Also, if you override
the
# configuration file with the -oX option, no pid file is written. In
other
# words, the pid file is written only for a "standard" daemon.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# If Exim creates the spool directory, it is given this mode, defaulting
in the
# source to 0750.
# SPOOL_DIRECTORY_MODE=0750
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# The mode of files on the input spool which hold the contents of
messages can
# be changed here. The default is 0640 so that information from the
spool is
# available to anyone who is a member of the Exim group.
# SPOOL_MODE=0640
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
# Moving frozen messages: If the following is uncommented, Exim is
compiled
# with support for automatically moving frozen messages out of the main
spool
# directory, a facility that is found useful by some large
installations. A
# run time option is required to cause the moving actually to occur.
Such
# messages become "invisible" to the normal management tools.
# SUPPORT_MOVE_FROZEN_MESSAGES=yes
# End of EDITME for Exim 4.
