Sorry for sending this again - but I'm hoping that somebody has an answer.
There are details below, but the basic problem is that I keep getting
ALIASES IS LOCKED and it does not let me put in an email forwarding
address. Is there a file I can manually modify to put that in. Details
below. THANKS.

You should see something lige this:
0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 30 23:24 monitor
1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 May 22 16:22 SITEDEL
If you see the SITEDEL file, type this:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/admserv stop
rm /etc/locks/SITEDEL
/etc/rc.d/init.d/admserv start
Okay, that made it so I can delete all the sites I needed to, WONDERFUL :) :)
Every site I deleted, although it did delete, it said the aliases file is
locked - and the problem is that I need to add a forwarding address for one
user and it won't save (GUI) because I get that same error. Can I just edit
a file and add the forwarding address manually?
Any other things to try to figure out why the aliases is locked?
Here is the contents of my /etc/locks:
[root@www locks]# ls -al
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 5 10:49 .
drwxr-xr-x 38 root root 4096 Feb 5 10:28 ..
-r-------- 1 root root 0 Jun 15 2003 LCK..swatch
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1183 Feb 5 10:42 altmp
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 53 Jan 22 00:12 list-7899
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 4 22:16 monitor
THANKS!!!
