We installed version 1.7d of LISTSERV yesterday (Tuesday, Sept. 15) and I found out today a slight difference in the way the "Local" keyword in the list header is working. Under 1.7c anyone at Virginia Tech (*.vt.edu) could send to a list set up as follows: Local= *.vt.edu Service= Local Send= Service Under 1.7d this no longer works, if you are not subscribed and try to send to this list you get the "not authorized" message. If I change the header to: Local= *vt* Service= Local Send= Service it works as before, under 1.7c. Yes we have an alias set up in the nodes file where VTVM1 == vtvm1.cc.vt.edu and VTVM2 == vtvm2.cc.vt.edu. My question is, why doesn't it work the way it used to? LISTSERV should know that *.vt.edu is "local", however it treats it as if it is not. Any ideas? We have several lists set up this way and although I can change them I would rather not. --Greg Kroll
