How to use ezmlm-web with debian: 1) install the package you surely did this already :) 2) 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 3) 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. 4) 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. 5) 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
