Doesn't look like your have smrsh in your config file for sendmail. Make
sure your MProg declaration in the sendmail.cf is right. Then `killall -HUP
sendmail`. Furthermore, there are things you must hard code into smrsh
before compiling, such as the directory in which you place 'blessed'
programs.

Brings up an issue. I think wrapper and smrsh are two far too similar
blades in the same swiss army knife. Might it be a Good Thing to have
Majordomo use smrsh, instead of its own wrapper; after all smrsh is more
general purpose and what we essentially do here is wrap a wrapper, which is
redundant.

Just a thought.

Try making the smrsh program 0555. That's what mine is.
