Ok first off
System Specs
------------
OS: Mandrake 7.2 (high security mode)
Mailer: Sendmail 8.11.0/8.11.0;
Majordomo Version: majordomo-1.94.4
Things I've checked
--------------------
Ownership and permission on wrapper
-rwsr-sr-x 1 root daemon 6755 Jul 12 1999 wrapper
(been switching back and forth between majordomo and root for owner)
existance of link in /etc/smrsh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Dec 9 22:19 wrapper ->
/usr/local/m.....
sendmail.cf has a Tdaemon line.
I've looked at the FAQ and the list archives to see if there was something
similar but I just can't find it.
The problem
-----------
I upgraded my system from mandrake 7.0 to mandrake 7.2. During the switch
over I moved the majordomo mailing lists to another domain running
mandrake 7.1. Everything is fine over there (Sendmail 8.10.1) but my
installation on the Mandrake 7.2 computer is behaving flakey to say the
least.
The main symptom of the problem is that users on the same computer as
majordomo do not receive the mail. Instead it gets stuck in the sendmail
queue as deferred. The exact error is
Dec 12 19:13:44 cr104471-a sendmail[2426]: eBD3Dih02423: SYSERR(majordomo):
openmailer: insufficient privileges to change gid
All mail going out of the system reaches its destination. The digest file
area is receiving its numbered files correctly. It is just the local
delivery that is the problem. If I shut down and restart sendmail the
stuck messages are delivered. If I mail messages in from outside (ie
other domains) they are delivered. If I mail a message directly from one
account to another on the same machine it is delivered. It is only
majordomo that gets stuck.
I think it is a permissions problem but at this point I don't know what to
tweek.
Thanks
