[comp.mail.uucp] Help making it work: local changes to net maps

kevin@kosman.UUCP (Kevin O'Gorman) (04/30/87)

I have a couple of mail links that are not in the maps, for reasons of
company policy at the neighboring sites.  I want to get these into my own
local pathalias stuff, and I'm having trouble.

I have tried just adding a file with a couple of lines to the input to
pathalias; it looked like

kosman	othersite(EVENING)
othersite	stillanother(EVENING)

The problem with this was that the resulting output from pathalias started
every path with rutgers!...  but I don't have any connection to rutgers at all,
and as far as I know, neither does <othersite>.  What am I doing wrong?

When I remove this file from the inputs, the pathalias output is once again
okay, routing everything through hhb like it should.
