[Mailman-Users] mailman and ssl fun
mailman and ssl fun: Since I only have one webserver without extra IPs for the different sites, I want to setup my mailman virtual host so it goes to mailman.kushana.com:10445 (through ssl). So, I get soemthing like this: VirtualHost mailman.kushana.com:10445 DocumentRoot /export/bin/mailman ServerName mailman.kushana.com ScriptAlias /mail//export/bin/mailman/cgi-bin/ ScriptAlias /mailman//export/bin/mailman/cgi-bin/ Alias /pipermail/ /export/bin/mailman/archives/public/ CustomLog /usr/local/apache/logs/access.mailman combined ErrorLog /usr/local/apache/logs/errors.mailman SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.key/server.key /VirtualHost After restarting apache, I set my browser to https://mailman.kushana.com:10445/mailman/admin/test-mailinglist/bounce I get the authentication page without a problem. But, once I enter the password and click on the login button, I am pointed to the url https://mailman/admin/test-mailinglist/bounce on port 443.

[Mailman-Users] Running mailman without web interface
How hard is it to run mailman (including the bounce management thingie) without running its web interface? We are moving our mail server to another machine which will not run any web servers. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org 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/
[Mailman-Users] NFS confusion
I feel stupid. I have a machine that is our mailserver (Solaris 8) and where mailman is run from. I also have a machine (Solaris 9) that is our webserver. Currently, I am running apache in the mailserver so I can access the mailman pages, but I would like to move that to the webserver. Fromw hat I understood, I could NFS mount the mailman directory to the webserver and then tell apache there to run it. So, I nfs exported the directory (here's the /etc/dfs/dfstab entry): share -F nfs -o rw=webserver,anon=0 /usr/local/mailman Then, I mounted the directory webserver # mount mailserver:/usr/local/mailman /usr/local/mailman without a problem (and, yes, I am making a point, for now, to keep the paths in both machines exactly the same). I then setup it in apache's httpd.conf: VirtualHost * DocumentRoot /usr/local/mailman ServerName mailman.my.domain.com ScriptAlias /mail//usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/ ScriptAlias /mailman//usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/ Alias /pipermail/ /usr/local/mailman/archives/public/ CustomLog /usr/local/apache/logs/access.mailman combined ErrorLog /usr/local/apache/logs/errors.mailman /VirtualHost And then made sure mailman is now a CNAME to the webserver. Now, when I try to access it, I get nothing but an error message (I would write it here but I disabled the above. If you want, I can redo it all and copy it down).

In other words, is it self contained? Can its bin and lib files, for example, be installed in our web directory, and still allow Mailman to function? Mailman can be installed under Solaris in your own virtual domain on your web host, but it requires (probably root) access to the shell on the server to do it and to integrate it with the web server and MTA on the host. I.e. IgLou will probably have to do it for you and will probably charge you for the installation and maybe for monthly use as well. To see what's involved in installing Mailman, go to http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/mailman/mailman/INSTALL?only_with_tag=Release_2_1_5view=markup Adding to the mess, I am running mailman right now with postfix in a Solaris 8 box. Besides my own errors (I am working on that ;), I had no problems getting it to work. I literally set it to do postfix (and postfix to do it), typed ./config and off it went. Compiler used was gcc. So, if you need someone to harass, that much I may be able to help. =) -- 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/

What you are asking is exactly what I am planning on doing here. We have a mail server (Solaris 8 box) which is currently being used as mailman's website. What we are going to do is to NFS mount the mailman directory in our webserver (a Solaris 9 box) so it can be accessed there. Probably, the best way to do it is kinda like what you infered: install mailman in the webserver and then automount the data directories. I'll be playing with that and keep you all posted with my adventures. Our other possible solution is to host the mailing lists on one of our own Linux servers, if the app cannot be installed on our host's server. Since we run Exchange Server, I am trying to simplify matters by hosting the mailing lists offsite, though. Thanks for your help. John Wheaton, Technology Coordinator St. Francis High School 233 W.

[Mailman-Users] Subscribers of one list = subscribers of another?
Let's say I have 3 lists, list1, list2, and list3. Now I would like to have the subscribers of list 3 to be those of list1 + list2. So, when the list of subscribers in, say, list2 changes, list3 is automagically updated. Is there a way to do that? I looked into what was suggested on the bottom of http://starship.python.net/crew/jwt/mailman/, but it seems to be aimed at accept_these_nonmembers.
