I posted this one last week, but no response, yet. Any takers on this one? I thought this was a fairly simple one -- or is it just uninteresting?
Thanks. Smith ---- I'm in the process of setting up a server with the following: - Fedora Core 1 - Mailman 2.1.4 - Sendmail 8.12.10 - INN 2.3.5 Mailman, Sendmail and INN all have been installed from the .RPM bundled with Fedora. I'm doing this setup as an internal server, so I'm not exchanging traffic with the Internet at larger. Where I currently am is that I have Mailman working fine as a mailing list server, and no problems at all with INN as a news server. I also am not having any difficutly of getting mail to news. However, where I am having difficulties is in getting messages composed in news back to mail. In my mailman configs, I'm pretty much running with default settings -- in fact, the only things I'm specifying in my mm_cfg.py are the necessary settings for the server name. I do have all the supplied activities running in the mailman user's crontab, and those are running on the specified schedules. The specific place where I'm having problems is when I run gate_news, I'm getting no response, other than a single log entry in /var/log/cron: Apr 27 15:00:01 bronze CROND[12436]: (mailman) CMD (/usr/bin/python -S /var/mailman/cron/gate_news) If I run gate_news from a shell prompt, I get a pause for a few seconds, and then a new prompt, but no other output. I've checked all of my logs, including /var/log/maillog and /var/log/mailman/*, and there are no updates to any of these logs following gate_news runs. I also checked all the steps in the troubleshooting section (3.14) of the Mailman FAQ. The only thing that turned up other than what should be is that that a check_perms check showed that the permissions of the files in /var/mailman/qfiles were incorrect. On the advice of check_perms, I ran 'chmod 02775 *' on the directory. (These files have owner:group set to: mailman:mailman ). I then restarted all the mailman services by rebooting the machine. Following that, I'm still having the same behavior. What I'm missing has to be something small, but I'm not seeing it. Any clues? Thanks in advance. Smith Composed by sacbeemail.
