[Mailman-Users] RH 7.2 RPM Install Question on RH. - Access Forbiden to Web Page

[Mike Gifford]

Hello,

I'm trying to set up mailman on a RH system, but get the following error
403:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /mailman/ on this server.

Apache/1.3.22 Server at my.server.org Port 80

I assume that this is because the permissions aren't set as readable by
the web, however I can't find where to change the permissions.  I have a
/home/mailman/ directory with appropriate permissions, but don't think
this is it.

I'm using mailman-2.0.8

I've followed README.REDHAT, and didn't get any errors on the install
process.

Please don't tell me to use the tarball.  It isn't an option for the
destination server.

This is the relevant part of my permissions:
[root at learningpartnership mailman]# cat /etc/passwd
<SNIP>
mailman:x:1048:1048:Mailman Mailinglist:/var/www:/bin/false

[root at learningpartnership mailman]# cat /etc/group
<SNIP>
www:*:502:mailman,mike

(are the numbers way wrong?)
