<html> <body> <h2>Build slowmilt</h2> To build <i>slowmilt</i>, just do the usual: <p><code><menu> sh ./configure<br> make<br> make test<br> make install<br> </menu></code> <p> The default installation directory is <i>/etc/mail/milter/slow/</i>. If you wish to change that default, just add an argument to ./configure like this: <p><code><menu> sh ./configure --with-installdir=/<i>path</i> </menu></code> <p> Here, <code><i>path</i></code> is the full path of the directory where you wish the milter to be installed. In addition to <i>slowmilt</i>, the initial files <i>slow.conf</i> and <i>slow.honey</i> are also installed in that directory. (See <a href="configure.html">configure</a> for information about how to configure those files.) <h3>Berkeley DB 4.1 support</h3> <p> The <i>slowmilt</i> program requires Berkeley 4.1 database support. If you do not already have it installed, you may download it from <a href="http://www.sleepycat.com/">Sleepycat Software</a>. The <i>slowmilt</i> program expects DB 4.1 to be installed in the path <i>/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.1/</i>. If you have installed it in a different location, you need to add an argument to ./configure like this: <p><code><menu> sh ./configure --with-berkeleydb41=/<i>path</i> </menu></code> <p> Here, <code><i>path</i></code> is the full path of the directory where the Berkeley DB 4.1 was installed. In addition, <i>slowmilt</i> expects that you did not build Berkeley DB 4.1 with a <code><i>uniquename</i></code> argument. If you did, you will need to build <i>slowmilt</i> with that same argument: <p><code><menu> sh ./configure --with-uniquename=<i>suffix</i> </menu></code> <p> Here, <code><i>suffix</i></code> is the unique suffix you gave when building Berkeley DB 4.1. <h3>Debugging</h3> <p> The <i>./configure</i> script figures out what compiler to use. If you wish to have it use <i>gcc</i> with <code>-Wall</code>, just run <i>./configure</i> like the following: <p><code><menu> sh ./configure --with-wall </menu></code> <h3>Purify support</h3> <p> The <i>slowmilt</i> can be built using <i>purify</i> by running <i>./configure</i> like this: <p><code><menu> sh ./configure --with-purify </menu></code> <p> This will prefix $(CC) with a literal "purify", so the <i>purify</i> program must be in your path for this to work. <h3>Whom To Run As</h3> <p> To be done. <h3>Other Programs</h3> <p> In addition to the <i>slowmilt</i> program, one additional program is installed in <i>/usr/local/bin</i>. That other program is a link to <i>slowmilt</i> and is called <i>slowedit</i>. This is the command-line interface to <i>slowmilt</i> and its underlying database. <p> <h3>The Next Steps</h3> After you have run <code>make install</code> and gotten it installed. You next need to install hooks into <i>sendmail</i> and a boot-time startup script. These topics are covered in the next two chapters <a href="patch.html">Patch Sendmail</a> and <a href="boot.html">Boot-Time</a>. </body> </html>
