SUMMARY: sendmail .forward problem....

From: <Rick.Brashear_at_ercgroup.com>

The problem was permissons on the top directory /apps.  It had rwxrwxrwx
permssions.  Changing this to rwxr-xr-x solved the problem.

Many thanks to the list and these members in particular:

Original problem submission: 

> I hope this is the appropriate list as it is a Solaris 8 system....
> 
> I can create an account whose home directory is in the standard filesystem
/export/home and have no problems getting .forward to work.  However, when I
create an account whose home directory is in the filesystem
/apps/iplanet/home the .forward feature does not work.
> 
> The sendmail.cf file has:
> # Forward file search path
> O ForwardPath=$z/.forward.$w+$h:$z/.forward+$h:$z/.forward.$w:$z/.forward
> 
> I have also tried using procmail with the same results.
> 
> Can someone give me guidance on this issue?
> 
> TIA!
