I'm running gentoo and have mailman installed as a package, after having run it for years on a solaris box. >From my aliases: # aliases for mailman use ## testing mailing list testing: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post testing"
So I would say the "wrapper" is the mailman program, which is a binary. My permissions are: gentoo mailman # ls -ld /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman -rwxr-sr-x 1 mailman mailman 7252 Jul 31 13:11 /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman Hope this helps. I would suggest getting mailman up with a test list, then migrating your existing config files. | Dan | On 10/2/05, Jeff The Riffer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Kinda rushed here, so sorry if this is short on details and long on typos. > > Migrated a production system over to Centos.
