What ended up happening was that I followed the Mailman list moving FAQ http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq03.004.htp and the tar'ed symlinks to my old lists were not valid on the new server. So the symlinks needed to be deleted and re-created such as: ln -s /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/linuxmednews Then I needed to 'chmod 755 private' in /var/lib/mailman/archives/private and now it seems to work!
The hopefully last step now is how to figure out how to get it to use the named URL, not the IP address URL such as linuxmednews.com/mailman/listinfo for the info page and the rest. -- IV On Dec 3, 2007 11:48 AM, Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ignacio Valdes wrote: > > >Then I needed to 'chmod 755 private' in > >/var/lib/mailman/archives/private and now it seems to work! > > It should be 'chmod 2771 private'.
