See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/lYA9> for why the lists don't appear on the overview pages. (You should be able to get to the list at, e.g., http://newserver.url/mailman/listinfo/LISTNAME even though it doesn't appear.) What old admin password? The site password and list creator password are set in the new installation via bin/mmsitepass or you can port the old ones by moving data/adm.pw and/or data/creator.pw. Individual list admin and moderator passwords are in the respective lists/LISTNAME/config.pck files and moved with the lists. Note that since it appears the web host has changed, you will have many 'more information about this list' URLs in the archives that point to the old host. The easy way to fix that, assuming all the archives/private/LISTNAME.mbox/LISTNAME.mbox files are good, is to just run bin/arch --wipe on all the lists. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
