Well, since no one else has taken a stab at this, and your name is
bunny.. :)


Not sure what you're trying to do, you should post more information about
the type of system your using and exactly what you're trying to do. 
Having said that, you could use a link(ln, man link for more
information)...


1:49pm@parrothd~/ttt>ln -s allusers newfilename

11:50pm@parrothd~/ttt>ll

total 1

-rw-r--r--  1 parrothd  staff  16 Nov 17 23:49 allusers

lrwxr-xr-x  1 parrothd  staff   5 Nov 17 23:50 newfilename -> allusers


This will allow you to keep the allusers file, and create a new file that
point to the allusers file. Ie, any channges you make to newfile name
will actually edit the allusers file and vice versa...

<excerpt><fontfamily><param>Arial</param><smaller>Dear Sir,

I would really appreciate it if anyone could solve my problem.

The case is : 

I have a file allusers*, this file has all the email address and all new
email id created goes directly to this file. I use this file as email
address to email all my users example:
<<mailto:allusers@cyber.net.pk>allusers@cyber.net.pk 

I would like to change the name of the file. How can I do that?

I dont think that using a command of mv, ren can do it, because there are
aliases involved. 

We have to do it through aliases. 

Please help me. I am in deep trouble.
