Name
confLNOPTS
Synopsis
As part of installing the sendmail suite of
programs, some symbolic links have to be established. The program to
create those symbolic links is usually called
ln(1), but it can be renamed with the
confLN
macro described in the previous section.
The default arguments given to the program are -f
-s
followed by the name of the file to symbolically link.
You can change those arguments by using this
confLNOPTS
Build macro:
define(`confLNOPTS', `-s')
Here, we removed the -f
switch which forces an
unconditional link. Another use for this
confLNOPTS
Build macro would
be to devise arguments for a different or custom linking program (see
the previous section).
