When adding the IP, any domains pointing to the IP are added to the local-host-names file, their email aliases are all configured, and sendmail is restarted. The problem is, none of the aliases ever work unless I actually reboot the entire machine.

This might be a stupid question but are you running newaliases after modifying /etc/aliases?

If you restart Sendmail with either

service sendmail restart|reload|stop/start /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail restart|reload|stop/start

the newaliases *should* be being run. But it certainly sounds like it might not be.

Will.
