22. The Account Created page signals the end of the installation and configuration pro-
cess. You may now begin to import software packages and reconfigure client systems
to use the Satellite. Refer to Chapter 6 Importing and Synchronizing and the RHN
Client Configuration Guide (available under Help) respectively, for instructions.
4.3. Sendmail Configuration
If your RHN Satellite Server will serve Monitoring-entitled systems and you wish to ac-
knowledge via email the alert notifications you receive, you must configure sendmail to
properly handle incoming mail. This is required by the email redirect feature, which allows
you to stop notifying users about a Monitoring-related event with a single reply.
Important
Some more restrictive corporate mail configurations will not allow mail to be sent from
an address that is not recognized as valid. Therefore, it may be necessary to configure
rogerthat01@{mail domain} as a valid email address in your corporate environ-
ment. Check with your mail systems administrator.
To configure sendmail correctly, run the following commands as root. First, create a sym-
bolic link allowing sendmail to run the notification enqueuer with the following command:
ln -s /opt/notification/scripts/ack_enqueuer.pl /etc/smrsh/.
