I need my mail filtered so I'm trying to install procmail
on my unix shell accounts (I have two shell accounts)...if I
could just get one to work :( . One of the accounts doesn't
let me compile on the system, and in the other account
procmail apparently creates the procmail-3.10 directory with
some numbered ownership instead of my own.
Here are the attempts:
############# UNIX SHELL ACCOUNT #1 ##############
The problem with this account appears to be with the
ownership it creates:
drwxr-xr-x 3 tgonzale friend 512 May 20 04:39 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 tgonzale friend 1536 May 20 04:39 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 210 600 512 May 20 04:39 procmail-3.10
^^^^^^^^^^^^
-rw-r--r-- 1 tgonzale friend 552960 May 19 05:21 procmail.tar
Which is why I probably got the following errors:
[27] tgonzale [/users/tgonzale] What?> tar -xvf pr
mkdir: procmail-3.1 tar: procmail-3.10/SmartList/ - cannot create
mkdir: procmail-3.10/SmartList: Permission denied
tar: procmail-3.10/SmartList/README - cannot create
mkdir: procmail-3.10/SmartList: Permission denied
tar: procmail-3.10/SmartList/FEATURES - cannot c tar: procmai
[the rest deleted]
###### UNIX SHELL ACCOUNT #2 #######
The problem with this account I believe is that they don't allow us to
compile.
314$ make install
/bin/sh ./initmake /bin/sh "/bin/ksh" "/bin/rm -f" "mv -f" "ln" \
"-lm -ldir -lx -lsocket -lnet -linet -lnsl_s -lnsl_i -lnsl
-lsun -lgen -lsockdns" \

/dev/null "make" o \
"cc" "-O " "-s " "procmail lockfile formail mailstat" \
"procmail formail lockfile" \
"procmailrc procmailsc procmailex" "src man" \
"/u/accounts/ma2/bin"
Whoeaaa! There's something fishy going on here.
You have a look and see if you detect anything uncanny:
**********************cc -O _autotst.c -o _autotst -s
./initmake: cc: execute permission denied
::::
cc -O _autotst.c -o _autotst -s
./initmake: cc: execute permission denied

gcc -O _autotst.c -o _autotst -s
./initmake: gcc: execute permission denied

*******************************************************
I suggest you take a look at the definition of CFLAGS*in the Makefile
before you try make again.
*** Error code 1

Any help with getting around any of these two problems would
be appreciated.
Thanks.
