[Mailman-Developers] b6 in and working...except archive access :(

[Corbett J. Klempay]

Huh.  I added 

Alias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archvies/public/

to the srm.conf file

and then added

# below added 11.07.98 by CJK for mailman 1.0b6
<Directory /home/mailman/archives/public>
Options FollowSymLinks
</Directory>

to access.conf and restarted httpd and got:

Not Found

The requested URL /pipermail/tm was not found on this server.

Note: I noticed that both 
Alias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archives/public/
and
ScriptAlias /pipermail/ /home/mailman/archives/public/
are declared in srm.conf.  Is that ok?
