Re: [Mailman-Users] problem creating new list on the web - Unkown Virtual Host
Brad,
Sorry for putting you through that. 'mailinglists.state.or.us' is not the actual domain name. I used it as an example. The actual name is 'listsmart.osl.state.or.us' and does exist in DNS.
I have a server with 2 NICs. One of the NICs has the 'listsmart.osl.state.or.us' IP attached to it along with another IP. I don't know if that makes any difference.

When I create a list via the web, I get the dreaded 'Unknown Virtual Host mailinglists.state.or.us' message.
That name does not exist in the DNS:

You might want to get that fixed.
While you're at it, you should have your nameserver administrators look into fixing the other things wrong with the domain -- see <http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?%26domain%3Dstate.or.us>.
