That will work, but you'll need to enable the access database in sendmail
first, by placing a line similar to the following in your sendmail.mc file:

    FEATURE(`access_db', `hash /etc/mail/access')

RedHat may already have this enabled by default, I don't know.  The Debian
sendmail package does not.

sendmail doesn't need to be restarted when a database created by makemap is
updated, but does need to be when a text file (such as the sendmail.cw file)
is modified, or when you've built a new sendmail.cf file from your sendmail.mc
