Did you get this message from check_perms Warning: Private archive directory is other-executable (o+x). This could allow other users on your system to read private archives. If you're on a shared multiuser system, you should consult the installation manual on how to fix this. and "fix" it by "chmod o-x archives/private" or something similar. This is not complete. The web server needs to be able to search the archives/private directory for poblic archives because the pipermail alias points to archives/public which contains symlinks into archives/private. As it says in the installation manual at <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node9.html>, if you do "chmod o-x archives/private", you must also do "chown <web-server-user> archives/private" where <web-server-user> is the user your web server runs as. As far as your mailman list jumping back to the listinfo page is concerned, in a previous post in this thread I suggested you put RedirectMatch ^/mailman[/]*$ /mailman/listinfo in your httpd.conf. It appears that you have somewhere in httpd.conf or an included file (from httpd/conf.d/ ?) RedirectMatch /mailman[/]*$ /mailman/listinfo It needs to be anchored as the first one above (the "^"). Otherwise any URL that ends in "/mailman" or "/mailman/" will redirect to the listinfo page. <snip> > >Mark, thank you so far for all of your previous help, everything you >have sent me has worked! This listserv is wonderful. Thanks for the appreciation. I'm glad to help, but I must point out that listserv(r) is a registered trademark that refers to a specific software product that is not Mailman. It is not a generic term for "email list" even though it is often misused that way.
