If you want to be able to access the archives via the 'pipermail' URL without authentication, you need that alias, but it needs to be in your case Alias /pipermail/ /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/ The path /var/lib/mailman/ is not a 'Linux' default, but it may be where some packager puts mutable data by default. This path is set by the --with-var-prefix option to configure and defaults to the --prefix setting which in turn defaults to /usr/local/mailman. In other words, in a totally default Mailman installation, everything is in /usr/local/mailman/ by default, but anyone who configures a package can put things where they want. Also, just to emphasize what I indicated previously, Actual archive data is stored (in your case) in /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/newlist/*. /var/lib/mailman/archives/public/newlist is a symlink to /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/newlist. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
