This sounds like a permission problem. Make sure that the
Wrapper program has the "sticky" bit on. (chmod 4775 I think)

Subject: 	My only SERIOUS majordomo problem

I have noticed with interest as some of the messages today mentioned some 
of the very same problems I am having, namely the "out-of-memory" error 
that shows up attached to this message.  Thanks to the person who 
suggested running "top", because I find that it is user "bin" that is 
running the "/.../wrapper majordomo" program.  I have watched as my RAM and
swapfile area go down to zero, and then recover.

Since it was user "bin" that was running that program, I experimented and 
did a "chown bin.majordom wrapper" and also added "bin" in the /etc/group
file to the end of the "majordom" group.

None of this helped.  I STILL get the message below.  Any ideas?

(BTW, all directories are owned by majordom, all chmod to 755, and all 
scripts and executables are 755; all else are 644.)
