I'm running Gauntlet 5.0 on Solaris 2.6 and when I give the newaliases command
I get the following error:
# newaliases
WARNING: local host name (hades) is not qualified; fix $j in config file
dbm map "Alias0": unsafe map file /etc/mail/aliases
WARNING: cannot open alias database /etc/mail/aliases
Cannot create database for alias file /etc/mail/aliases: No such device

I want to add an alias for firewalladmin in the alias file to send
mail to my real email address. Right now, the messages are bouncing because
firewalladmin is a unknown user.
