	I have private archives going back years that are viewable as
private archives.  When I change to public they dissappear from the web
access and any attempt to get to the archives results in

The requested URL /mailman/archives/listname/ was not found on this
server.

Change back to private and they are there again.  I checked and it appears
the correct symlinks are being created.  I've changed their ownership to
list since that was the owner in the Private directory where they worked.

Still doesn't work and I'm stumped again.
