the '(fixing)' notation says 'yes', but this is very puzzling in a couple of ways. What Mailman version is this? In current versions at least, bin/check_perms doesn't check archives/public/*. Also, /usr/local/mailman/archives/public/birntest should be a symlink to /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/birntest, and its ownership and permissions shouldn't matter as it's those of the target that count. The bottom line is cane you access the public archives for this list via a 'pipermail' URL. If so, you don't have a problem. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
