/usr/local/mailman/archives/public/ is the path that results from a default configure. To get closer to FHS you can configure with the options --prefix=/usr/local/lib/mailman or --prefix=/usr/lib/mailman and --with-var-prefix=/var/lib/mailman Full FHS compliance is harder. See <http://wiki.list.org/x/8486953> and the mailman-developers thread linked therefrom. Note that this is a Red Hat patch, not standard Mailman. If you want to file a bug for documentation purposes, feel free, but it will be marked 'won't fix - wishlist' for MM 2.1. -- Mark Sapiro <[email protected]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
