Re: Getting error message from mailx
Looks like you are using nis maps for aliases (check /etc/nsswitch.conf file) and it's not available because you are not using nis.
You need to update nsswitch.conf accordingly.

Re: Getting error message from mailx
Hi,
the question is:
(1) Is NIS not running accidentially OR
(2) do you NOT want to run NIS OR
(3) NIS hasn't been setup it, but you want it to run.
At point 1: (re)-start NIS
At point 2: remove the NIS references in /etc/nsswitch.conf
At point 3: First setup NIS - after that you won't get this error message any longer.

it's bigger than anything anyone has ever dreamed of before.
So if it's just us, seems like an awful waste of space, right?
