Mike,

What you need to do is modify your apache httpd.conf file to create a 
script alias for mailman, like such:

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/mailman/cgi-bin/

I believe there's a file called README.linux or redhat to that effect. You 
should also be able to find the info on the web. There are other entries 
you'll have to add for additional web functionality as well (ie: 
pipermail). My installation is running RH7.2 as well.
