LinuxQuestions.org - How can I forward root mails to multiple recipients?

Hi,

I'd like to forward root mails (like cron job results) to multiple recipients.
How can I do that?

Putting 2 addresses in /root/.forward doesn't seem to work. :(

edit: Solved: Just put the recipients in /etc/aliases as follows:

Code:

# This is the aliases file - it says who gets mail for whom.

#

# >>>>>>>>>>      The program "newaliases" will need to be run

# >> NOTE >>      after this file is updated for any changes

# >>>>>>>>>>      to show through to sendmail.

#

# It is probably best to not work as user root and redirect all

# email to "root" to the address of a HUMAN who deals with this

# system's problems. Then you don't have to check for important

# email too often on the root account.

# The "\root" will make sure that email is also delivered to the

# root-account, but also forwared to the user "joe".



root:  user1, user2
