Earl,
Doh! I just had to perform the following:
# chmod +rx /home/mailarch
Seems obvious now but hung me up a while. The default
permissions on newly created accounts is 700 on stock Redhat systems.
Maybe add this to the otherwise *excellent* instructions?
Thanks again,
Bill

Now, am I to point my browser at http://servername/archives
or <same>/html or <same>/html/<listname> ? No matter, since none
seems to work. Opening them as files works OK - the content is
right, just no joy on loading them via http.
One thing I wondered, don't I need an "Alias" directive like
Alias /archives/ "/home/mailarch/archives" ?
Yep. You set the URL_ROOT to what URL will allow a client to
get to the archive files.
The <Directory /home/mailarch/archives> is there but
am I to point to http://myserver/home/mailarch/archives/ ?
/home/mailarch/archives is not directly accessible by the Apache
web server. The Alias directive you mentioned should fix things.
BTW, changing URL_ROOT can mess up search results. Hence, if
you have been using "/archive" as the root, leave it that way and
just use the Alias directive to fix HTTP access problems.
--ewh
