This is what I would expect. The virtual host info in mailman only controls things like host name in links on the web pages, etc. and what lists appear on the admin and listinfo overviews. Everything you do on the web appears to operate on site five. The most likely cause of the I think is in your web server config. I think the scriptalias /mailman/ site_five_prefix/mailman/cgi-bin/ is in the web server config in a global place, not in a place where it applies only to the site five domain. Expanding on the above situation a bit, you changed the (presumably) DEFAULT_URL_HOST in site five's mm_cfg.py to 'lists.siteone.com' and created a list in site five's $prefix which now has a web_page_url attribute like 'http://lists.siteone.com/mailman/'. The other site five lists all have web_page_url attributes like 'http://lists.sitefive.com/mailman/', thus when you go to the admin overview at http://lists.siteone.com/mailman/admin, it shows only the new list because you are going to site five really, and the new list is the only one whose web_page_url matches the host in the url you went to. When you go to http://lists.sitefive.com/mailman/admin, you see those lists, but not the new one. Again, everything tells me it's the web server running the site five cgi_bin/* wrappers regardless of which host you go to. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
