Hi,

I am new to sendmail. I have to make some changes on sendmail.mc to disable define(`LUSER_RELAY', `cyrusv2:localhost'). Should I rebuild sendmail.cf? Could someone guide me on how to do it?
 
You need to run m4 (located on redhat in /usr/bin/m4) in order to rebuilt sendmail.cf

1. backup your current sendmail.cf
2. m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
3. restart sendmail

Suggest doing this on a test system first to make sure your changes didn't break anything, then do so on production system.
