No. You don't need (or want) suEXEC. The above message indicates that you configured mailman with --with-cgi-gid=mm. This is not what you wanted to do as it requires you to have Apache run the cgi-bin wrappers as group 'mm' (which I think you could do with User and Group directives rather than suEXEC, but you don't want to anyway). What you need is just what it says. Rerun configure with --with-cgi-gid=Administrators instead of --with-cgi-gid=mm (and the rest of the options the same as before) and then run 'make install'. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
