I have posted this to the Users list, but have not had a good reply.
This is really bugging me and I have no idea what the problem is.


OK, I have no idea why this is happening. I am running on YellowDog
3.0.1.  The install and everything seems fine, but when I hit a CGI, I
get:

Mailman CGI error!!!

The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error. This entry is being
stored in your syslog: 
Failure to find group name nobody.  Try adding this group
to your system, or re-run configure, providing an
existing group name with the command line option --with-cgi-gid.


The group nobody does exist.  I tried --with-cgi-gid='apache nobody' and
apache is also not found.  Any ideas on what is going on?
