I have the 2.1-7 RPM from RedHat's Rawhide installed on RedHat 7.3, with
Postfix 1.7 (the RedHat 7.3 RPM, with some minor tweaks). It's mostly
working. I have a test list created with members subscribed, but the
archive doesn't seem to be working. From
https://server/mailman/listinfo/list/, I click the archive link, which
takes me to https://server/pipermail/list/ and I get back a 404 from the
web server. I have the Alias defined in my Apache config.
/var/mailman/archives/public/list[.mbox] is a symlink to the corresponding file in the private archive folder. I think it's a problem with either the Apache config (directory index diabled?) or file permissions.

I just went through this yesterday. The problem for me was that the group permissions were not set guid. I did chmod g+s and the archives were accessible after that.
Here is my global DirectoryIndex.

DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.php index.php4 index.php3 index.phtml index.cgi

I just tried adding that to the <Directory> section for /var/mailman/archives, with no luck. Here is the relevant config (which gives me a 404 accessing the archive)

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/mailman/cgi-bin/
Alias /pipermail/ /var/mailman/archives/public/
<Directory /var/mailman/archives>
DirectoryIndex index.html
Options +FollowSymlinks
</Directory>
<Directory /var/mailman>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
</Directory>


I want to have the mailman site 'protected' with a username/password, but am not sure where the .htaccess file should go to do this.

It goes into the directory that you want to protect. This is not real protection, as the username/password pair are transmitted in plain text. Best to put the entire area under ssl and use mod_auth_pam to authenticate the users (if they are system users).
I don't have the MailMan files in the document root of the VirtualHost I added it to (the SSL enabled VirtualHost). So I added the <Directory> tag for /var/mailman at the end of the config chunk above. That seems to do it. :)
