First post, hopefully I've done my homework but there's a lot of docs/settings and I'd like a quick sanity check :-)
I've a Suse 9.0 box called hostname.mydomain.com and have installed mailman and apache (1.3.28-) from the Suse rpms, so http://host.mydomain.com/mailman/whatever works as does mail in/out of mailman. My main concern is that I'm running apache/mailman/postfix on a box called "hostname.mydomain.com" and for mailman lists I'd sooner use "lists.mydomain.com". I can do the following and it appears to work: Add A and MX records for lists.mydomain.com in DNS pointing to the IP of host.mydomain.com Add lists.mydomain.com to the 'mydomain' variable in postfix and add /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases to 'alias_maps' in postfix Change lists.mydomain.com to the default in mailmans mm_cfg.py config file so I have these options: DEFAULT_NNTP_HOST = 'lists.mydomain.com' DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'lists.mydomain.com' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'lists.mydomain.com' DEFAULT_URL = 'http://lists.mydomain.com/mailman/' MTA = 'Postfix' POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD = '/usr/sbin/postalias' POSTFIX_MAP_CMD = '/usr/sbin/postmap' DELIVERY_MODUL = 'SMTPDirect' SMTPHOST = 'localhost' OWNERS_CAN_ENABLE_PERSONALIZATION = 1 Now, having done that everything _appears_ to work - seems too easy so I'd sooner ask now than start using the thing and run into some foul hiccup that means I have to start over! regards Paul -- paul <at> spamcop.net ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
