- We have recently started see a strange problem on one of our
- machines.
-
- Sometimes incoming mail is delivered locally instead of being
- forwarded to the address in /etc/aliases. Incoming mail to
- joeuser@aoc.nrao.edu is deliverd locally even though the
- aliases file specifies otherwise. This does not happen for
- all users and not all the time. The machine is an Auspex
- 5000 files server running Auspex 1.3.3Q2 which I think
- is SunOS 4.0.3. It is a secondary NIS server. None
- of the affect accounts are in the local password file.
-
- Any help or hints would be appreciated!
