|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) install the package
|
||
|
|
you surely did this already :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) install required additional software
|
||
|
|
Take a look at /usr/share/doc/ezmlm-web/README - section III (Requirements).
|
||
|
|
If you are able to run /usr/lib/ezmlm-web/ezmlm-web.pl without problems, then
|
||
|
|
you are ready for the next step.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) create user-specific suid binaries
|
||
|
|
As perl-suid is considered deprecated, you have to compile a C-wrapper
|
||
|
|
for every user of your debian system, who wants to manage his mailing
|
||
|
|
lists with ezmlm-we.
|
||
|
|
Usually you do this only for your virtual mailing list user.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to create a wrapper, type the following:
|
||
|
|
ezmlm-web-make-suid USERNAME DESTINATION_FILE
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
e.g: ezmlm-web-make-suid john ~john/public_html/cgi-bin/ezmlm-web
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4) create a user-specific configuration file (optional)
|
||
|
|
Copy /usr/share/doc/ezmlm-web/examples/ezmlmwebrc to ~john/.ezmlmwebrc
|
||
|
|
and change its content according to your setup.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5) access control (optional)
|
||
|
|
configure access control for the fresh cgi binary. Maybe you can
|
||
|
|
use the htaccess.sample file in /usr/share/doc/ezmlm-web/examples as
|
||
|
|
a template.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you should create a webusers file to define the permissions of all
|
||
|
|
possible web users. An example webusers file can be found at
|
||
|
|
/usr/share/doc/ezmlm-web/examples/webusers.sample.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See /usr/share/doc/ezmlm-web/README for details about access control.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6) testing
|
||
|
|
Now you can access the ezmlm-web interface by using your web browser.
|
||
|
|
e.g. point it to http://localhost/~john/cgi-bin/ezmlm-web
