Check your sendmail aliases file. More than likely, you had changed the alias root to point to your email address, and during the up2date, it updated sendmail and overwrote your aliases file. If this happened, you old alias file will be /etc/aliases.rpmsave or something to that degree.

Greetings - I upgraded the kernel on my RHEL 3 file server last week and am now at 2.4.21-37.ELsmp. I was previously at the stock 2.4.21-4.ELsmp kernel. The results of the up2date process appeared to go well at the time. Now I have noticed that I am not receiving the daily email notifications for Logwatch and my tape backup software. I looked at my /etc/host file and saw that it was the same as it was before updating my kernel. I checked some of my reference manuals and one mentioned that it referenced the location of the host file in /etc/sysconfig directory. I found a host file at /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/host. I don't know if this host file was there previous to my kernel upgrade. This host file is different than the one in /etc/host which I had previously configured for our network. Can anyone tell me which one I should have configured for my network? Is it possible that the new kernel looks for the host file under the /etc/sysconfig directory whereas the old kernel looked for it under just the /etc directory? Thanks.
