The easiest way would to be install Mailman via the port. In particular, /usr/ports/mail/mailman/Makefile suggests: CONFIGURE_ARGS= --prefix=${MAILMANDIR} --with-python=${PYTHON_CMD} \ --with-username=${MM_USERNAME} \ --with-groupname=${MM_GROUPNAME} \ --with-mail-gid=${MAIL_GID} --with-cgi-gid=${CGI_GID} .include <bsd.port.pre.mk> # The Mailman port supports a number of variables that may be tweaked at # build time. Getting the values of some of them right is crucial! # Perform a "make options" to see more information on these variables. # MM_USERNAME?= mailman MM_USERID?= 91 MM_GROUPNAME?= ${MM_USERNAME} MM_GROUPID?= ${MM_USERID} MM_DIR?= mailman .if ${OSVERSION} >= 450000 MAIL_GID?= mailnull .else MAIL_GID?= daemon .endif CGI_GID?= www IMGDIR= www/icons -- -Chuck
