If it's RedHat with Mailman 2.1.5, the installation is probably in /var/mailman an the log files in /var/log/mailman. >The aliases are there. > >I am ready to tell them to go ahead and do a complete reinstall, but >want to make sure I have got my subscriber list intact.

Can you see the membership on the admin membership list? The roster doesn't show hidden members regardless of who requests it (this will be fixed in 2.1.10). Don't do the reinstall untill you have gone through <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq04.078.htp>. My guess as the most likely problem is the qrunners aren't running (item 1b in the FAQ). You may not be able to do some things like bin/check_perms, but check the things you can. >I rely on CP completely as am novice at SSH and also afraid I will mess >it up even more.

How can I see, retrieve or back up my list (remembering I know how to >log in with SSH but that's about all) /var/mailman/lists/<listname>/config.pck (assuming I have the first part of the path right) has all the list settings, the membership list and all the member options. /var/mailman/archives/private/<listname>.mbox/<listname>.mbox has all you need to rebuild the archives with /var/mailman/bin/arch, and the already built archives are in /var/mailman/archives/private/<listname>/ >2.
