One fix I found to this problem is
O AliasFile=nis:mail.aliases in each sendmail.cf file

Subject: Sendmail not using NIS alias files
I posed about this once before and never saw a response; hopefully
someone knows :-)
I'm using NIS and sendmail is fine on all my Solaris boxes but on Linux
it doesn't seem to want to consult my NIS alias file. On Solaris if I
'mail brian', it gets redirected to my alias; but on Linux if I 'mail
brian' it gets delivered locally.
What am I missing? What do I need to do to make sendmail consult the
NIS alias files???
Thanks
:b!
