Just for testing, I created a jail virtual machine. This way cleanup action needed afterwards is just simple rm -rf, basically. Its name, c5.dino.sk, will be used in following clarification. > > I created directory /var/List/1 with couriermlm create command, chowned > > it to courier, set URL, LISTNAME and LISTDESCR options.

Command used to start webmlmd was ${bindir}/webmlmd start ${sysconfdir}/webmlmrc (with variables resolved appropriately, /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/etc/courier, repectively).

Clicking on test1, http://c5.dino.sk/cgi-bin/webmlm/1 shows test1 TestMLM1 To subscribe, send a blank E-mail message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, or enter your E-mail address here: Subscribe To unsubscribe, send a blank E-mail message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, or enter your E-mail address: Unsubscribe I put [EMAIL PROTECTED] into subscribe textbox and pressed subscribe button. URL shown in address bar is http://c5.dino.sk/cgi-bin/webmlm/1/sendsub and content is Request received An E-mail message was sent to this address, which you should receive shortly. Follow the instructions in the E-mail message to process your request. Continue (Continue is clickable.) Clicking on Continue gives me http://c5.dino.sk/cgi-bin/webmlm/1 again. In confirmation mail, there is following: Or, instead of replying, click here: <URL:http://c5.dino.sk/cgi-bin/webmlm/test1/subconfirm/PKEJEKFLKMPMHILLPNGLFDCCGOKCOEGE> When I enter http://c5.dino.sk/cgi-bin/webmlm/test1/subconfirm/PKEJEKFLKMPMHILLPNGLFDCCGOKCOEGE into web browser, result is List test1 not found.

I would like to have internal list directory name different, but if that's not possible, I can live with that.

I will try to ask on FreeBSD mailing list for more, no idea here yet. man 2 mknod tells me for EINVAL (which was the reported error code) Creating anything else than a block or character special file (or a whiteout) is not supported. So this looks like i could not leave this call uncommented. > > I can use OS > > specific patch to handle this, but I would like to ask... > > How exactly to you go about creating a filesystem socket node on FreeBSD? Looking at source I think actual creation is done in start_daemon() function on cgidaemond.c file with socket() call. The same function is used in sqwebmaild, and there is no mknod() call.
