thanks for replying, jeremy. i'm afraid i'm still in the
dark. here's what it says in that section, and what i did:
- If you plan on running your MTA and web server on
different machines,
nope; it's all on the same machine
- Configure your web server to give $prefix/cgi-bin
permission to run CGI scripts.
done. here's what i added to my httpd.conf file:
ScriptAlias /mailman/ /home/mailman/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/home/mailman/cgi-bin/">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
next:
- You want to be very sure that the user id under which
your CGI scripts run is *not* in the `mailman' group you
created above, otherwise private archives will be
accessible to anyone.
i haven't dealt with this yet.
next:
- Copy the Mailman, Python, and GNU logos to a location accessible
i haven't dealt with this yet either. right now i'm not
concerned about logos.
next:
- Configure your web server to point to the Pipermail public
done:
Alias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archives/public/
finally i restart my httpd and yet i still have that same
error described below.
should mailman create a webpage for my list? if so, where?
if i could know this i could point my server at it.
thanks again,
michael
