Multiple instances may be the best choice if you want to be able to have the same list name on more than one host. It you can live with the restriction that all list names must be unique regardless of host, then Mailman virtual hosts may be a better solution. >The 1st instance for abitipuliti.org works just fine >On the 2nd and 3rd for liste.cnms.it and swazitalia.org I get some >PROBLEMS: > >When I fill in the form on > - http://liste.cnms.it/mailman/create (2nd) >and on > - http://swazitalia.org/mailman/create (3rd) >I get > > > *Error: /Unknown virtual host: liste.cnms.it/* > >*Error: /Unknown virtual host: swazitalia.org/* >On both forms it will accept as "List creator's (authentication) >password" the password of the 1st instance!! This is probably because all hosts are using the instance you intend to be for abitipuliti.org, and none are using the others. >Also some URLs point erroneusly from 2nd or 3nd web interface to 1st domain. A consequence of the above. >If I create the list from the command line I get the notification of >the new list but when click to the URL >http://swazitalia.org/mailman/admin/test >I get: No such list /test/ This is probably because you created the list in the /data/mailmanswazitalia instance, but the web interface is looking only at the /var/mailman instance.

Since your virtual hosts seem to use the same IP address (at least the ones I could look up), you need NameVirtualHost directives. See <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/vhosts/name-based.html> or <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/name-based.html> as appropriate. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
