I've added this:
#Added by Mike for mailman
ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/mailman/cgi-bin/
Alias /pipermail/ /var/mailman/archives/public/
<Directory /var/mailman/archives>
Options +FollowSymlinks
</Directory>
It didn't say where to add it, I added it somewhere round the middle..
Outside of an if statement (I believe).. I'll try to move this and see
if that works...
Nope.. Moved it right above the Virtual <VirtualHost MyIP>
Restarted the server (again) and still got the same error

I was able to find this..
/usr/share/doc/mailman-2.0.8/INSTALL

I could find some for installing mailman from a tarball, but not as an
rpm.

Is there an rpm for pipermail? I couldn't find it, but hadn't noticed
the Alias int he http.conf fragment above.
However, mailman must be working as otherwise I'd get a 404 error rather
than a 403 error..
