Hello, > To make things simpler, you could limit users (and admins) to modify the > list databases on only one of the two (or more) servers
That's what I was going to do. > You could could point all website directions to that one server (and > only one of the servers) and you could direct the <listname>-request > emails to that same server, and then let both servers field mail to the > lists. And that :) > Then you would simply have to do a one-way sync of the ~mailman/lists > directory from that one server out to your mirrors. If you wanted the > archives as well, then you would have to sync the ~mailman/archives > directory as well. ok, i'll rsync them across every 1/2hr or so and hope that the main server is not unavailable for the time before someone changing a subscription and the next rsync :) Are there any mailman developers around here? - a much better solution would be to turn on a "backup server" option in the config file, specifying the e-mail address of the list server on the backup server. What should then happen if this is on, is whenever a list is changed either with mail commands or the web interface, it should send a mail to the backup server to make these same changes. This sounds very easy to implement but would be very useful! Thanks for your help!
