Example—Initiating an NIS+ mail_aliases Table

To create a table, follow these instructions.

1. Either be a member of the NIS+ group that owns the table, or become root on the mail server, or assume an equivalent role.

   For information about roles, refer to “Using Privileged Applications” in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

2. Initiate an NIS+ table.

   # aliasadm -I

3. Add entries to the table.

   • To add two or three aliases, refer to Example—Adding Aliases to the NIS+ mail_aliases Table From the Command Line.

   • To add more than two or three aliases, refer to Example—Adding Entries by Editing an NIS+ mail_aliases Table.
