[Mailman-Users] Configuration back to to ascii config file?

[Jeff Pflueger]

So then: Are the command line scripts the best way to create a duplicate 
set of configurations, mailing list lists, and list members on another 
mailman running on another server, or is it possible (and preferable) to 
figure out which mailman files should be copied over to the second 
server to create the duplicate settings, lists, and members?

If I were automating this process would I rsync the specific files, or 
write a cron script to run the various python scripts, send them over to 
the other server and then have the other server run a cron script to 
import the settings, lists and members....

Thanks,
Jeff
