Hello.
I am trying to forward the e-mails received to one address towards a php script. I am trying all I can but nothing does.
I have edited my /etc/aliases file and added this line. ecard-bounce: "|/usr/bin/php /etc/smrsh/ecardbounce.php"
Then, of course I do a 'newaliases'. In my /etc/smrsh I have placed the symbolic link defined above, which has been created this way: ln -s /home/my/scripts/ecardbounce.php /etc/smrsh/ecardbounce.php
When using this configuration, I get the following error back by email:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- "|/usr/bin/php /etc/smrsh/ecardbounce.php" (reason: 255) (expanded from: ecard-bounce@myserver.com)
----- Transcript of session follows ----- Status: 404 Content-type: text/html X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.9
No input file specified. 554 5.3.0 unknown mailer error 255
However, if I put a hardlink instead of the symlink, all works fine! The permissions of the symlink and the file linekd are all 777.
Has anyone already had this problem before, or would anyone have an idea of the problem?
Thanks, Daniel

Wouldn't smrsh need to include /usr/bin/php as well in its permitted subshell applications links in /etc/smrsh/? the object of the binary is not checked -- the binary is
Note: I do not pass on the security advisability of this act, just sendmail syntax
It has been a long time since I added items to the sendmail permitted applications list as it is a known scurity cesspool.

Hello, Russ.
Yes, the php link is there in /etc/smrsh, but it doesn't help. To me it is like if the object of the binary (the parameter, or the script to execute) seems to also be checked, because if I put a file in the /etc/smrsh then it is executed properly.
Thanks anyway. Any other idea? Daniel
