Hi there,

I was installing smartlist on a Redhat 6.2 machine yesterday that uses smrsh. I created a symbolic link in /etc/smrsh and get the following error in my maillog...any thoughts?

....can't fint /.etc in /var/spool/mail

ummm...what's it looking for /.etc in /var/spool/mail for?

Where is your list user's $HOME? For example my user (I called him `list`) has his homedir in /var/list. $ grep list /etc/passwd list:x:990:90:Mailing List:/var/list:/bin/sh So under /var/list I have the ./.etc subdirectory. Is your users homedir pointed to /var/spool/mail?
