Hi. I've recently installed majordomo. When I started testing I made
a few bogus lists names to play with and created both .closed and
.passwd files for each, in the same place as where my lists are kept
on the majordomo server.
When I tried to put three REAL lists into action, I created a
.majordomo file in each of the approval user's home directory on the
majordomo server. I have the format in 3 columns separated by tabs.
Are there any restrictions on the characters for the password?
For all three approval users, it generates the same message below,
regardless of what I've changed the password to be. Also the "passwd
<list> <old-password> <new-password>" command doesn't work for them
either.
How does majordomo find the home directory of the approval sender and
check the sender of the approve command and that the password is
correct for that person and listname?
Although most of our users have pcs or their own workstations, they
all still have a home directory on the majordomo server, and we update
hesiod database so the automounter can find it.
Suggestions about this .majordomo file?
Another unrelated question, what was the final outcome on the
discussions on X400 address formats? I currently administer 727 mail
lists with X400 addresses and other types that have a "/" in them.
Thank you for your help in advance!!
