More info on this:

I added a symlink under "DocumentRoot" (which is specified as /var/www/html
on my system), so the link is  "/var/www/html/*mailman-cgi-bin*" , and
added a ScriptAlias in httpd.conf to point there:

ScriptAlias /*mailman*/ "/var/www/html/*mailman-cgi-bin*/"

After adding the alias, I restarted apache: "apachectl restart"

Still no luck.

When I attempt to access the ~/*mailman*/listinfo page, I still get the
"InternalAccessError" and this line in suexec_log:

"command listinfo not in docroot (10005)"

What could I being doing wrong here?
