OK... I've gotten GCC installed. When I attempt to ./configure
mailman, it tells me my permissions are incorrect. I have the set to
User: mailman - r,w,e (read, write, execute capabilities)
Group: mailman - r,w,e
Everybody: r,w,e
I also cd'd to the mailman folder and set gid=mailman
I'm still getting the following:
[mailman at treca mailman-2.1.3]$ ./configure

***** Set-gid bit must be set for directory: /usr/local/mailman
[mailman at treca mailman-2.1.3]$
To What am I supposed to set the gid, and how am I supposed to get that
accomplished?
Thanks
