[comp.unix.admin] mail aliases and YP

ct1x+@andrew.cmu.edu (Ching-Ping Tseng) (06/24/91)

HI, I am a novice system administration assistant.   At our site we just
got three 9000/320 joining into our local network, mostly of Sun
workstations.

I'd like to ask if sendmail does consult YP (now NIS) version of
aliases?  If it does, since the mail aliases is not a standard map of
HP's implementation of YP, how should it be configured to realize the
existence of the new map?  If it doesn't, how do you suggest to manage a
site-wide mail aliases?

Thanks.
