Yes, but that's what I want since I need sendmail with full SASL & LDAP
support.
Note that this problem only appeared with sendmail 8.12.10; with earlier
versions everything was just fine. 
This is not related to RedHat 9, since I've exactly the same problem
with my old mail server, running on a RedHat 7.3

Which gives:

libcom_err.so.3
libcrypto.so.4
libcrypt.so.1
libc.so.6
libdb-4.0.so
libdl.so.2
libgdbm.so.2
libgssapi_krb5.so.2
libk5crypto.so.3
libkrb5.so.3
liblber.so.2
libldap.so.2
/lib/ld-linux.so.2
libnsl.so.1
libpam.so.0
libpthread.so.0
libresolv.so.2
libsasl.so.7
libssl.so.4
libwrap.so.0
libz.so.1

All of these librairies exist, and are provided by RH.

Any idea ?
