  You don't have permission to access /mailman/ on this server.

Does /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin have permissions that look like this?

# ls -la /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin
total 200
drwxrwsr-x   2 root     mailman    512 Apr 25 14:17 .
drwxrwsr-x  20 mailman  mailman    512 Apr 25 14:16 ..

Even with correct permissions, I think you get 403 if you ask for /mailman/ by itself, unless your Apache config allows automatic directory indexing, which of course it ought not on cgi-bin stuff.

Try accessing some /mailman/<component>, e.g. /mailman/listinfo, and not just /mailman/ by itself.
