Is there a /private/var/mailman/lists/disciples/config.pck.last file? What are its permissions? Are they the same as /private/var/mailman/lists/disciples/config.pck? How do these compare with another list? Mailman is in the process of saving the list config. It is in the last step. It has saved the config to config.pck.tmp.host.pid and is trying to do the equivalent of rm config.pck.last mv config.pck config.pck.last mv config.pck.tmp.host.pid config.pck and it gets the exception on the first step. Are there more errors like this in Mailman's error log? -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
