Thanks, Dave, for your help... Actually, I followed those directions, but it turns out that whoever configured our apache created two 'conf' directories in different places on the system. Unfortunately, I modified the httpd.conf file in the wrong directory last week. Ugh... After adding ScriptAlias, etc to the correct conf file on the system, I still needed to 'open up' permissions to both the cgi-bin and pipermail directories in mailman to permit apache to run scripts in them, etc. Finally, after making these additional changes to httpd.conf, mailman worked. Thanks again for answering my mail. mailman looks to be a nice listserver.... -- Jim. ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Klingler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sunday, January 14, 2001 1:30 pm Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Problems setting up Web interface for mm 2.0.1 > > > > QUESTION: How does one set up the Web interface to mailman??? > > These are scripts, Jim.
