I've moved the aliases and virtusertable files over and have run makemap and newaliases. Sendmail has been complaining that it can't find aliased users like postmaster and www. I doublechecked the aliases file and they are there. If I add them to the virtusertable file, which I'd rather not do, then sendmail stops complaining and delivers the mail. I checked for the "-n" flag and it's not set when runnung sendmail at startup. I also checked to see that the aliases file was in the correct place as indicated in sendmail.cf. Any ideas? -- Steve Suhre steve@pasta.net 439.6052 Cell 632.2897 Home
