error in newaliases
I cannot seem to get sendmail running on my laptop. If I run sendmailconfig I get some errors. First thing that goes wrong seems to be newaliases. If I run that manually i get: Cannot open hash database /etc/mail/aliases.db: Invalid argument WARNING: cannot open alias database /etc/mail/aliases Cannot create database for alias file /etc/mail/aliases Does not seen to have to do with permissions as far as I can see. Any hints much appreciated! -- Erik van der Meulen [EMAIL PROTECTED]

NEWALIASES PROBLEM.
Hej! FÖrsökte updatera min alias fil med newaliases här om dagen. Dock fick jag ett meddelande om att filen /usr/lib/smail/mkalias inte hittar /usr/lib/smail/getopt. Vad gör jag då? Har den trots detta updaterat filen eller måste jag först installera något? Vad i så fall? /Anders. /usr/
potato, sendmail, and newaliases...
Well, I've had a fun night. it appears that the new potato packages do something to break sendmail... apparently in the code which makes up a new aliases.db. when I run newaliases by itself I get errors saying that it can't find/open aliases/aliases.db I would paste in the errors, but I'd have to reinstall sendmail which would break my mailing again which I can't do. In any case, I'm not sure if the problem is with glibc2.1, the database routines, or just sendmail. I was getting similar errors with smail. The only package which seems to work is zmailer... so it's staying around for a while. Anyone know what is going on? --Evan -- Evan Van Dyke E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Page: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ#: 15442232 DNRC's Minister of Lost Internet Packets.

newaliases script?
I've got an application I'm trying to install on my new Debian system and it is giving me a warning about a missing script (called newaliases). I'm assuming this script somehow manages mail aliases (based on the type of app it is and the name), but other than that I don't know anything about it. I can't find any information on this script in any FAQs, HOWTOs, or any of the Packages files (via grep). Anyone have any ideas about where I can find this script?
