I just discovered that all my majordomo traffic is getting copied to
/var/spool/nobody This makes no sense to me:
[root@saturn etc]# grep nobody aliases
owner-majordomo: steveo,nobody
nobody: /dev/null
mjtest-owner: steveo@syslang.net,nobody
== /usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper resend -l mjtest
mjtest-outgoing,nobody'"
mjtest-digest-outgoing:
:include:/usr/lib/majordomo/lists/mjtest-digest,nobody"
owner-man-bytes-dog: steveo,nobody
owner-danforthfarms: steveo,nobody
frambors-owner: steveo@syslang.net,nobody,
frambors: "|/usr/lib/majordomo/demime '==
/usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper resend -l frambors frambors-outgoing,nobody'"
frambors-digest-outgoing:
:include:/usr/lib/majordomo/lists/frambors-digest,nobody"
owner-maynardrodandgun: steveo,nobody
owner-patchell-olson: steveo,nobody
owner-p1tmm: steveo,nobody
tmm-owner: steveo@syslang.net,nobody,
tmm: "|/usr/lib/majordomo/demime '==
/usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper resend -l tmm tmm-outgoing,nobody'"
tmm-digest-outgoing: :include:/usr/lib/majordomo/lists/tmm-digest,nobody"
owner-tmms-cc: steveo,nobody
ftpa-sc-owner: steveo@syslang.net,nobody,
ftpa-sc: "|/usr/lib/majordomo/demime '==
/usr/lib/majordomo/wrapper resend -l ftpa-sc ftpa-sc-outgoing,nobody'"
ftpa-sc-digest-outgoing:
:include:/usr/lib/majordomo/lists/ftpa-sc-digest,nobody"
[root@saturn etc]#
As you can see, nobody hooks off into /dev/null. Anyone know what's going
on here? I do happen to have (under Red Hat) an entry in my passwd file:
[root@saturn etc]# grep nobody /etc/passwd
nobody:x:99:99:Nobody:/:/sbin/nologin
nfsnobody:x:65534:65534:Anonymous NFS User:/var/lib/nfs:/sbin/nologin
[root@saturn etc]#
Should I change all ref in my aliases file from nobody to noone?
I'm confused. :-(
