I think I may be on the right track. A smart person (not me) would
have looked at the Apache error log to see what was wrong. Apparently
I didn't have my syntax exactly correct in my httpd.conf. That was
part one. After I fixed the syntax, stopped and restarted Apache, I
tried to access the CGI-Script again and this time it came back and
gave me an error on my webpage that the script was executed as group
"daemon" rather than group "nobody". In the process of fixing this.
Thank you,

Visit the FAQ at http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py and read

Here's a cut and paste from my httpd.conf file...
ServerName...

Logs and ht directory...
<Directory "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/">

When I try to access my site via http using a URL similar to this:
http://www.mysite.tld/mailman/create
I get a 404 File Not Found error
Not Found
The requested URL /mailman/create was not found on this server
Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated.
From the INSTALL document:
8. Common Problems
Problem: All Mailman web pages give a 404 File not found error.
Solution: Your web server has not been set up properly for handling
Mailman's cgi commands. Make sure you've:
1) Configured the web server to give permissions to
$prefix/cgi-bin
2) Restarted the web server properly.
Consult your web server's documentation for instructions
on how to do these things.
It seems you've done step 1). Have you done step 2)?
