I think i'm not having permission errors anymore... BUT, i still can not generate the aliases.db... it seems that my OS, doesn't support my sendmail.cf version... how can i update this .cf file???
when i exec sendmail -bi, i get this:
Warning: .cf file is out of date: sendmail AIX5.3/8.13.4 supports version 10, .c
f file is version 9
