Installation & Configuration Guide

Chapter 7: Customization for Sendmail

Prerequisites

1. The sendmail daemon needs to be stopped. Please verify its status using:

service sendmail status

The output will be similar to:

sendmail (pid 8366) is running...

If sendmail is running, please stop sendmail using the command:

service sendmail stop

2. The sendmail daemon should not startup automatically when the Operating

System boots up. ExpressCluster SRE would automatically start up and shuts

down the sendmail daemon once configured with the steps explained below.

Please execute the following command to disable sendmail from automatic

startup at boot time:

chkconfig --del sendmail
