Is this a file permissions issue?
Yes :-). Since groups are specified with a name which is them mapped to a number, is that number the same? I've seen new versions of an OS come with different /etc/group files. I assume that tcwaters is not the group that you expected to be there. (See the FAQ also, you'll probably need to either change the group tcwaters to be called mailman and reset all the file groups or rebuild mailman on that new system.) z! ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
