Re: [Mailman-Users] changing the administrative password problem
did you change the site pass as well? (mmsitepass) the site password trumps all (i think that might be a quote from the documentation :) Tom On Tue, 2 Jul 2002, Chadd Hudson wrote: My mailman setup is great except that I cannot seem to change the admin password.

Re: [Mailman-Users] changing the administrative password problem
One password is the Site password (works on all lists), the other password is your List password (specific to that list). In the web-admin you change the List Password. To change the Site Password use the command line: ~mailman/bin/mmsitepass Jon On Tuesday 02 July 2002 10:45 pm, Chadd Hudson wrote: My mailman setup is great except that I cannot seem to change the admin password.

RE: [Mailman-Users] changing the administrative password problem
Sorry I wasn't more specific. I guess I got a little ahead of myself. I thought the one in the web-admin (list password) was the same as the site password. I guess I have the list password set ok since I can admin the list with it. Now I just want to change the site password. Well when I run the mmsitepass command I get the following: Traceback (innermost last): File ./mmsitepass, line 39, in ? Import paths Importerror: no module named paths I looked at line 39 and don't see where it's trying to get the paths directory? from. Here's lines 39 40. Import paths from Mailman import Utils. I'm guessing I've got everything set up correctly since the rest of the program works great. Sorry to be a pain but I just don't know python so I'm kind of out of my element. If it helps, I can post some of the config files if needed. Just let me know what someone needs to see. Even with this little problem, mailman is far better than majordomo!
