Hello everybody:

I new to this list and to mailman too. Im running away from majordomo. Installed mailman and seems to work ok, but cant make it work with apache2. It worked with apache 1.??. My search via google didnt find anything useful. In my first attemp with apache 1.??, it didnt work but tell me about /etc/mailman.cgi-gid and mailman.mail.gid and i fixed them. I tried with the original and the set that worked with apache 1.??. Didnt work, but i think that the problem is near the ownership.

Thank you for your help,

Carlos Pantelides

Here is my data:

cpu: Pentium II 266 memory: 96 MB real, plus 200Mb swap hard disk: 6G half free, reiserfs

(all but clamav from suse 9.0 rpms)
