I get something like this, hen I try give newaliases command:
(path names changed)

WARNING: writable directory /path/to/majordomo
dbm map "Alias1": unsafe map file
/path/to/majordomo/majordomo.aliases
WARNING: cannot open alias database
/path/to/majordomo/majordomo.aliases
Cannot create database for alias file
/path/to/majordomo/majordomo.aliases$
       
OS is SunOS 5.5
majordomo 1.94.4
mailer sendmail

I have not installed majordomo myself and there are no lists, either (this
my trial is the 1st). Could this be a wrapper prob? For me the wrapper
directory permissions looked ok.

Ideas? Harri
