Right. It is the same error. In this case above it is the web admin CGI that encounters the error. It appears the underlying issue is that your OS will not allow anyone other than the owner of a file to create a hard link to it. I.e. if config.pck is owned by www:mailman, the qrunners running as mailman:mailman can't create the link and if config.pck is owned by mailman:mailman the web server running as www:mailman can't create the link. This prevents an updated list object from being saved by any process not running as the user who owns config.pck even though that process is running as group mailman and the mailman group *should* have permission. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
