I have configured a virtual domain for one of my clients. His Web page sits on my server and can be accessed from the net using www.hisdomain.com. I have a problem with my sendmail configuration however. I created a new .mc file and generated the new sendmail.cf file(after saving the original file). The new .mc file contains the entries: Cw hisdomain.com and in the LOCAL_RULE_0 section: R$+ <@ hisdomain.com> $#local $:$1.fund the /etc/aliases file has the following lines added to the bottom of the file: MAILER-DAEMON.fund: postmaster.fund postmaster.fund: root.fund webmaster.fund: root.fund hostmaster.fund: root.fund sales.fund: root.fund root.fund: hisname where hisname is a valid user-id on my server. When I execute the "newaliases" command, I get infinite loop errors. Can someone give me a reason for this problem. I am almost sure I followed all the steps outlined in the BSDI manual. Hope someone can shed some light on this. Regards, Mel O'Neil Nurse President, NeTSPEEK, Inc.
