The alias works fine. It's just an auth request. I'll live with it.

Unless your userid is also zero, my guess is that Exim isn't using the
alias.? This message
(to me) says "I can't deliver to 'root' because that userid is
zero".
On Postfix, you have to run 'newaliases' after changing /etc/aliases.
