As part of installing the sendmail suite of programs, some symbolic links have to be established. The program to create those symbolic links is called ln(1).

If you prefer to use a different program to create symbolic links, you can do so by defining, as shown here, a new program to use:

define(`confLN', `/usr/local/bin/ln')

Before specifying a new program, however, be sure that its command-line arguments (see the next section) are compatible with those used by the default program.

Prior to V8.12.5, this install-macro could be used only for libmilter, but not for the confLINKS programs (confLINKS). This has been fixed as of V8.12.6, and this install-macro can be used for all the programs.
