Mandrake already has the include file on your server - you may need to
modify the settings slightly to match where you installed your Mailman.
Look for it under the directory /etc/httpd/..
Here is a copy of the one I'm using on my current test system (which is
currently RH9)

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/mailman/cgi-bin/
Alias /pipermail/ /var/mailman/archives/public/

Options +FollowSymlinks
