A site is running Excelan Lan Workplace s/w for SCO Xenix and is having problems with the SMTP implementation. The symptoms are: inbound mail connections are accepted and mail is accepted under any host alias, but only mail addresses to the canonical name (first is /etc/hosts) is actually delivered. Log entries on delivery include: [find_root] Bad File Apperently this product has fallen off the edge of the world, but the site had a working setup and cannot seem to recover it. Any advice? /John
