  I ran "mkserv stand" on a 6.4R mvax2.  The sendmail* files were all
  copied to the local disk, but there's a slight problem.  Two of them,
  sendmail.cf and sendmail.fc are links that redirect through the urvd!
  That causes a problem if I want to run the standalone server
  (remember, that's what the "stand" in "mkserv stand" is for) without
  the packs attached.  Also, the aliases, aliases.dir and aliases.pag
  files are redirected through /urvd, but I don't know that it's a
  problem.  (We sohouldn't need the aliases files unless the sendmail is
  non-standard, right?)

Is this after updating the staff-packs?  Several changes were made to
mkserv, so unless you have updated the packs, I do not know whether to
consider this valid...  supposedly most of what you described has been
fixed.
