re-directing root's mail to my external mail id

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 

I _amost_ have this working. Should be such a simple thing but it is causing me a lot of grief. I am using the .forward file in root's home dir to do the forward. Right now it is working on only one of three machines. I _think_ I have them all configured identically. In fact I have copied the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file from the working machine to the others and stop-make-start of sendmail but it still does not work. Below is the mail log from the working machine and one non-working machine. This is from a reboot and send an email to root sequence. I use ximian to send the mail. Is there a better test, possibly a command-line way? I see a difference in the last line, that additional ctladdr parm in the failing case. Could that be causing the problem? If so, how do I make it go away?

Suggestions about how to solve this are welcome, the /var/log/maillog contents follow...
