[Mailman-Users] Hiding a list in a virtual host

[Bob Weissman]

I administer several Mailman lists for a non-profit organization. I would like to have two "levels" of lists; one level accessible to all members of the organization, and one level accessible only to the "insiders," the people who run the organization.

I'm not worried about securityhere , just about confusing the general membership population. I would therefore like to hide the internal lists on a virtual host, as in "internal.foo.org", where "foo.org" is my organization's domain. This way, the general population can see only the lists they have access to, and the insiders can go to the virtual host to see the hidden lists. I don't want to use unadvertised lists, because the insiders need a friendly user interface to the private lists.

I created the vhost, and created a test mailing list, and changed the list's web_page_url to point to the vhost. This works fine; when I go to http://internal.foo.org/mailman/listinfo, I see only the new internal list.

The problem is that when I go to http://foo.org/mailman/listinfo, I see the new internal list also. The whole point was to have the list /not/ appear on this page. What am I missing here?

Thanks,
