Griffiths" writes: Hi, Does anyone know of a way to get newaliases to rebuild a btree formatted alias file. The alias files must be hash structure. And userdb is not an alias file (even though it almost works like one). Newaliases is a link to the sendmail binary, it is the same as running 'sendmail -bi'. Makemap is a separate binary. The 8.9.3 sendmail binary does not know how to build any db files except alias files. So it is not possible to meet your goal with sendmail directly. Still it is easy enough to write up a make file to help you remember what commands to run to keep your various database files up to date. If you haven't done it yet I'd recomend that you look over the offerings at www.sendmail.org chris __ Chris Fedde 303 773 9134 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
