Hi, ... I have AIX v.4 configurated with send mail. Now I need to configure send mail on AIX v.5. Do you have any idea?
Witch informatio I can "migrate" from AIX v4 tom AIX v5? Is there a compatibility or not?
Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation.

Check the Red Book AIX 5L Differences Guide Version 5.2 Edition (# SG24-5765-02) for differences between sendmail on 4.3 and sendmail on 5.1 (apparently, no other changes were made for 5.2).

Also, have you checked the Red Book # SG24-6191-00? This is the 5L certification guide. It has a section on sendmail and what you have to do to configure it.

is where you'll find the Red Books.

First of all ... Thanks for the support. I need to "migrate" the configuration of sendmail form AIX v.4 (oslevel=4.3.3.0) to AIX v.5 (oslevel=5.1.0.0). Reading the redbook I think the configuration do not change. Maybe the AIX v.5.2 will change the sendmail configuration.
About this my opinion, I need that someone give me a support in following the steps necessary for a sendmail configuration on AIX v5.1. More exactly, the files: /etc/aliases, /etc/sendmail.cf, ecc. are only necessary giving from AIX v4 or not?
Thanks in advance. I hope in your help.

Regards.
