forwarding logs

[Burke, Thomas G.]

An update...
 
It appears that any script that has a "mailto" of root does not get forwarded.  If I change the "mailto" to root at host.domain, then it seems to work.  I think there is something subtlr going on here.  Any clues?
 
    Thanks,
        Tom

After I did my reinstall & updates, I restored my /etc directory from backup, so I assumed everything should be OK...  After redoing the aliases database, it seems to be at least partially working.  I am getting some logs, but no outputs from cron jobs, yet.  Seems I need to do a little more poking, yet.


I can now sucessfully perform a "loopback" test by emailing root from work & getting the responses back.

'chmod 600' for the .forward file should do it, I think. 
When you send email to the root account on the server, do you get it at your 
work email ?
