Ok I looked at that page. My permissions and ownership were correct
on hosts.hfaxd. The page didn't mention anything about putting the userid
that needs admin privs at the top of the file. I did that anyway and now
it works.

However, I am confused because I never had to do that in FC2 and 4.2.1.
Why does it need to be the first line in the file?

This implkies that only one username can have admin privs. Is this correct?

Thanks for the tip.

Mike
