Re: RH 8.0 not using NIS for /etc/aliases

Ah, the glib problem. Solution is simple, go to /etc/sendmail.cf or /etc/mail/sendmail.cf, look for the line: O AliasFile=/etc/aliases and change it to: O AliasFile=nis:mail.aliases This should do the trick. On Mon, 20 Jan 2003, Red Hat wrote: Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2003 17:37:04 -0800

You may want to check the user directory itself. In RH 6.2, the directory is 700 or rwx__, it needs to be at the minimum 711 or rwx__x__x. Another problem is if apache allows directory access. If you do not have proper index page (like index.html), it will not show you to directory. On
