[csw-users] /testing Exim 4.62

[Markus Mayer]

Exim 4.62 is now available from http://www.blastwave.org/testing/

This release is the first to support SMF and exim-env.sh (see below).
Because of these major changes, glitches in the package are more likely
than if it was just a regular upgrade.

Please test and report any problems you may find.

Thanks.

>From README.CSW:

Service Management Facility (SMF)
---------------------------------

As of release 4.62, the Exim package supports the new Service
Management Facility introduced in Solaris 10. The package auto-detects
whether or not it can use SMF on a given system. If SMF is not
detected, the traditional init.d script will be installed together with
the proper runlevel links.

If the system supports SMF, the package will instead install
/opt/csw/var/svc/manifest/network/exim.xml (the service description)
and
/opt/csw/lib/svc/method/svc-exim (the start/stop script). The FRMI
(Fault Managed Resource Identifier) for CSWexim is
svc:/network/cswexim.

Example:

# /usr/sbin/svcadm enable svc:/network/cswexim

Environment File
----------------
Also new in package 4.62 is support for an "environment" file, namely
/opt/csw/etc/exim/exim-env.sh, which can be used to set up environment
variables or to modify the command-line parameters before exim is
started. This file is "sourced" by the startup scripts
(/etc/init.d/CSWexim or /opt/csw/lib/svc/method/svc-exim) which have
been modified to honor the environment variable $EXIM_PARAMS to contain
command line parameters for Exim.

This file is persistent across updates, so if you modify it, your
changes will stick around.

Markus
