The O'Reilly book is talking about building from official Sendmail
sources. For some reason, Red Hat's sendmail RPM does not include the
vacation program. It may (or may not), however, have a separate
vacation RPM. I'm too lazy to look.

Check to see if you have a vacation package. In not, download one.
Or get the Sendmail sources, and build it yourself. The latter will
probably be a lot of work, involving configuring the sendmail sources
to match the sendmail package on your system (and reading up on how to
do that)...
