[Mailman-Users] Public to Private

2011-06-22 Thread David Andrews
I have a list that had an archive, which was public.  I need to 
change it to private.  Is there anything I have to do besides 
changing the setting under archives / ?

I think changing that still leaves the actual archives to be public
(mailmain/archives/public/LISTNAME).
As such I think you also need to regenerate the archives using bin/arch
--wipe LISTNAME.

I am not sure this is a necessary step though, but you can help enlighten me
also, by checking where your archive files are located at the moment:)

That is not necessary. The archives are always in archives/private/.
The only thing in archives/public is a symlink from
archives/public/listname to archives/private/listname and a second
symlink from archives/public/listname.mbox to
archives/private/listname.mbox if PUBLIC_MBOX = Yes in mm_cfg.py.
These symlinks are created or removed as an archive is changed from
private to public or vice versa.

If an archive is changed from public to private, the only issue is that
any saved 'pipermail' URLs will no longer work. If it is changed from
private to public, saved 'private' URLs will still work, but will
still require authentication.

Rebuilding the archive with bin/arch --wipe has no effect on any of
this.

Thank you for clarifying this. Now I know better that yesterday.
