This works on Solaris 2.8 with the latest patches. YMMV.
On "fred" put the following entry in /etc/mail/local-host-names
john
and restart sendmail (a kill -HUP to the process ID will do). Makes sure
"john" has an entry in /etc/hosts.
**********************************************
On "john" you'll need to do a bit more work.
Here's the procedure.
cd /usr/lib/mail/cf
cp Makefile Makefile.orig
cp main-v7sun.cf relay.cf
cp main-v7sun.mc relay.mc
Add the next three lines to the bottom of relay.mc
define(`SMART_HOST',`fred')
MASQUERADE_AS(`fred')
FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')
modify Makefile so the line that reads ALL says
ALL= relay.cf
then type
make
cp /etc/mail/sendmail.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.orig
cp relay.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
cd /etc/mail
vi sendmail.cf
put a line after
#Dj$w.Foo.COM
that reads
Dj$w.george.com
then do
ps -ef | grep mail
find out sendmail's process id (eg. 9999) and -HUP it eg.
kill -HUP 9999
check /var/log/syslog to make sure it worked.
then use mailx to send to a george.com address eg.
mailx James.Jamieson@george.com
Here's what I got in response:
