[Mailman-Users] troubles with Mailman

[Dene Ulmschneider]

Hi there-

I am running RHL 7.2 with a PIII-500 and 784mb Ram.

My install went OK. When I got to the /check_perms I had to use the -f but after that I did get a "no problems" message.
I am having trouble setting up the lists. I believe that the mail is being refused. Here is my scenario----

I setup the "test" list as described in the documentation - but never received an email notifying me how to access the list.
I am also trying to figure out how to setup the httpd.conf to allow access to the server via the web. I have added the following
to my httpd.conf file for use of Mailman:
        ScriptAlias /mailman/ "/home/mailman/cgi-bin/"
        Alias /pipermail/ "/home/mailman/archives/public/"
and
        <VirtualHost 10.0.0.100>
        ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        DocumentRoot /home/mailman/
        ServerName mailman.datatechie.com
        ErrorLog mailman-error_log
        TransferLog mailman-access_log
        ServerSignature email
        DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm index.shtml
        LogLevel warn
        HostNameLookups off
        </VirtualHost>

Then the FAQs said to check the logs and that the aliases are setup correctly. The FAQ says that the aliases should be in
~mailman/data/aliases - which I can't even find. and the logs show the following error:

SMTP LOG
Apr 06 19:20:01 2002 (6320) All recipients refused: (111, 'Connection refused')
Apr 06 19:20:01 2002 (6320) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.077 seconds

POST LOG

SMTP-FAILURE LOG
Apr 06 19:24:00 2002 (6388) -1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (ignore)

Anyone know how I can fix this?

Also- isn't there "home page" for admin via the web? I have not found an "index.htm" anywhere in the Mailman folders.
Where do I point the httpd.conf to for the DocumentRoot?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Dene.
