Hi all,

I have RANCID up and running with ViewVC for web CVS access.

It works great via the web interface but it is not sending emails when a change occurs.

The change appears in the web-interface but RANCID does not appear to try to send emails. (There is nothing in /var/log/maillog).

I CAN send test messages to and from the RANCID user on the RANCID (Centos) server and they arrive to my / the external email address.

The problem seems to be RANCID not attempting to send messages.

I have the following in my /etc/aliases file.

rancid:                                                  myemailaddress
rancid-group1:                                  rancid
rancid-admin-group1:                    rancid
rancid-group2:                                  rancid
rancid-admin-group2:                    rancid
rancid-group3:                                  rancid
rancid-admin-group3:                    rancid

Any ideas as to what the problem might be?

Many thanks,


Sean Browne
