Become root, go to /etc/mail and run "make". That should rebuild all maps in the name of root.

make
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.

**Dolda2000** · 07-22-2003

Hmm... OK, then, run "make clean && make", then try to restart sendmail.

Okie, thanks mate, sigh, just arrived at office, can not try it......................

**Dolda2000** · 07-22-2003

Really? Can't you just putty home?

**skyfolly** · 07-22-2003

no ftp is allowed here in my office ah! so dumb! the firewall here blocks it! I am an hour away from my home!

**Dolda2000** · 07-22-2003

Putty isn't FTP; it's SSH. Have they blocked SSH as well?

**skyfolly** · 07-22-2003

I have always been told that some services must be disabled if are not needed by me to prevent intrusions. I dunno about ssh, I think my company blocks anything that is not http's. even any word related to web mail is censored by the firewall when i type the http address in web browser. strict as hell. this a bank, so..................

thanks

regards
