Hello X folks !!
I'm running DecWindow clients (Vax, VMS) in xnews server (Sparc, Unix)
I read that, only, the User Executive can send e-mails to
other domains with DECW$MAIL.EXE.
I did a lot of trials and I have the following conclusion:
-The user needs "CMKRNL" and "SYSPRV" privileges
The problem is that these privileges are powerfuls and are
recommended, only, for the System Administrator and not for a
normal user.
-When a normal user (without these privileges) try to send a
DecW$Mail to another domain, the computer puts the following
message:
"Unable to open log file. Not logging.
Error closing logfile!
DECW$MAIL severe error - attemting to complete pending actions
%PMDF-F-FCRT, File create error"
-All works fine in the local domain
-All works fine in local and in other domains with the text mail
(no DecW$Mail)
I would like that a normal user could send DecW$Mails to another
domains.
ANY INFORMATION IS WELLCOME !!!!
Thanks for your attention,
