Not very sure of what the /etc/aliases.db is for.

Assuming the file is for writing. The file must have the correct permissions. Change according to your need:

For Read, Write, Execute - 777 (e.g. *.db) For Read and Execute - 755 (e.g. *.html *.cgi *.lib)

Use the CHMOD command.

E.g. chmod 777 aliases.db
