sendmail 8.12 - auth problems

I'm running sendmail 8.12 on Digital Unix 4.0E. I'm trying to get
authentication to work. I get the following sendmail errors in the
logs:

  AUTH warning: no mechanisms
  STARTTLS: Error: missing random file definition

I have the following in the sendmail.mc file from which the config was
built:

  define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A p')dnl

  define(`CERT_DIR', `/etc/mail/certs')dnl
  define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/sendmail.pem')dnl
  define(`confCLIENT_CERT', `CERT_DIR/sendmail.pem')dnl
  define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl
  define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/ca-bundle.crt')dnl
  define(`confSERVER_KEY', `CERT_DIR/sendmail.pem')dnl
  define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/sendmail.pem')dnl
  define(`confRAND_FILE', `egd:/etc/entropy')dnl

  dnl set SASL options
  TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
  define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
  define(`confDEF_AUTH_INFO', `/etc/mail/auth-info')dnl

Based on what I've read in the docs and from searching the web for
tips, these things work for other people, but I don't see any
references to Digital Unix wrt this, so I'm wondering if I need to be
doing something special.

Here's the greeting, note the lack of AUTH:

  250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
  250-PIPELINING
  250-8BITMIME
  250-SIZE
  250-ETRN
  250-STARTTLS
  250-DELIVERBY
  250 HELP

Oh, yes, I've got egd installed and running and the sasl libs
installed also.

Any helpful tips appreciated. Thanks.
