Change msdos to vfat in the fstab. Line 4 is probably the filesystem
type that it's complaining about. I don't believe "auto" is valid.
The vfat option mentioned above assumes you have vfat support in your
kernel. Do a cat /proc/filesystems to see if it is supported.

Yes, actually I ran into it as well a few days ago, after I'd already
written a script to re-create it.
Just another chapter in my
sendmail,
exim, qmail-smtpd, or some other SMTP server. telnetd isn't relevant
in this case.
Now, telnetd should certainly be disabled, but if you don't want
certain people logging in at all, do the shell trick as well. It
works fine for ssh as well.

Also, be sure to add the aliases output when you create a new list to

if forwarding is enabled, you should see something like:
