a 'grep pid' in the source directory gives me : misc/mailman:# pidfile: /home/mailman/data/qrunner.pid misc/mailman.in:# pidfile: @prefix@/data/qrunner.pid so how does mailman know to put its pidfile into /var/run/ ?? I just can find /home/mailman/data/qrunner.pid ; and there is a lock file at /home/mailman/locks/master-qrunner.miel.667 -- Fil, who's just put the presents under the tree. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers
