Here's the Makefile I used on our SGI 4D/380S. W_UID and W_GUID are or
group and user majordomo. "wrapper" is setuid and owned by root (make
sure W_UID and W_GUID are *not* 0).
The only thing I have not gotten to work is the "approval" to post
articles in a moderated list. Un-moderated lists work fine (have not yet
tried bounces list; waiting to get approval of moderated list to work first).
I have only put the first part of the Makefile which I beleive is what
you're looking for:
# this makefile installs the following structure for the bsd universe:
# (root is W_BIN below)
# root -+-- -- actual majordomo scripts, libraries etc
# +-- Tools -- tools like archive
# +-- bin -- user level tools, approve, bounce etc
# +-- man -- man pages
#
# This is where "wrapper" looks for the programs it's supposed to run.
W_BIN=/usr2/people/majordo/bin
# This is the environment that (along with LOGNAME and USER inherited from the
# parent process, and without the leading "W_" in the variable names) gets
# passed to processes run by "wrapper"
W_PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr2/people/majordo/bin:/usr/bsd
W_HOME=${W_BIN}
W_SHELL=/bin/tcsh
W_MAJORDOMO_CF=$(W_BIN)/majordomo.cf
# Use these settings for BSD-based systems, including SunOS 4.x. If you're
# using a POSIX-compliant system (including SysV and BSDI), comment these
# settings out, and uncomment the POSIX settings below.
#W_USER=daemon
#W_GROUP=majordo
#W_CHOWN=${W_USER}.${W_GROUP}
#W_CHMOD=6755
#WRAPPER_FLAGS = -DBIN=\"${W_BIN}\" -DPATH=\"PATH=${W_PATH}\" \
# -DHOME=\"HOME=${W_HOME}\" -DSHELL=\"SHELL=${W_SHELL}\" \
# -DMAJORDOMO_CF=\"MAJORDOMO_CF=${W_MAJORDOMO_CF}\"
# If you're using a POSIX-compliant system, uncomment this set of parameters
# and comment out the BSD settings above.
#W_UID = 1
#W_GID = 15
W_UID = 10001
W_GID = 10000
W_CHOWN=root
W_CHMOD=4755
WRAPPER_FLAGS = -DBIN=\"${W_BIN}\" -DPATH=\"PATH=${W_PATH}\" \
-DHOME=\"HOME=${W_HOME}\" -DSHELL=\"SHELL=${W_SHELL}\" \
-DMAJORDOMO_CF=\"MAJORDOMO_CF=${W_MAJORDOMO_CF}\" \
-DPOSIX_UID=${W_UID} -DPOSIX_GID=${W_GID}
# YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE.
# For those stupid machines that try to use csh
SHELL = /bin/sh
I hope this helps,
Claude
