[cobalt-developers] Majordomo permissions problem (Raq4)



Hello.

Sendmail is rejecting all my Majordomo mail. It -seems- as if sendmail
doesn't have permission to execute /usr/local/majordomo/wrapper.
However, I find that odd since I thought sendmail runs as root.

I enclose a list posting attempt with actual domain names edited out.
Look particularly at the 'transcript of session' - there's a definite
sh: permission denied error there, and that seems to link with this
posting I found regarding the same problem:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=klein.321.30E1BE61%40mars.rowan.edu

Any clues as to what the permissions should be? For example, am I wrong
in thinking that sendmail runs as root?

Cheers,
Ian
