[Mailman-Users] CGI-GID problem (wanted 99, got -1)

I've been reading through all the documentation for both Mailman and apache
and can't seem to figure this out.  i also couldn't find anything in the
archives

I'm running Redhat 7.3, Mailman 2.0.11, and Apache 2.  

i compiled both apache and mailman from source code and made all the changes
to permissions and added the lines to the files as specified in the Mailman
install docs.   when i get to the end and create a newlist the message gets
sent out and when i go to the page specified in the E-mail i get the CGI-GID
error page.   expected 99 got -1 (reconfigure to take -1?)  so i went back
did make clean and then did a ./configure setting the cgi-GID to be -1 and
it tells me no such group exists, so i tried GID apache, no such group
again.   i was about to try nobody, which is the group that apache seems to
be running under (it's definitely the user anyway) but that GID is 99.
which is what it expected to begin with.    

anyone able to help me or point me towards some Docs that will help me solve
this problem, I'm having no luck finding anything.  



TIA
Robb
