Do you have: ScriptAlias /mailman "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin"

defined in httpd.conf?

Does /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin have permissions that look like this?

# ls -la /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin
total 200
drwxrwsr-x   2 root     mailman    512 Apr 25 14:17 .
drwxrwsr-x  20 mailman  mailman    512 Apr 25 14:16 ..
-rwxr-sr-x   1 root     mailman  17730 Apr 25 14:17 admin
-rwxr-sr-x   1 root     mailman  17734 Apr 25 14:17 admindb
