Hey group-

I am in the process of seting up a new mailman server on RH 8.0 using postfix as the MTA.  This is the first time I have used postfix and the aliasdb.
After i configured mailman and completed the installs I tried to add a list via the web-admin and received a error -->

RuntimeError: command failed: /usr/sbin/postalias /usr/local/mailman/data/aliases (status: 1, Operation not permitted) 

I assume this is a permissions problem with mailman tring to run postalias? (but am not sure) Has anyone ran across this and if so how did you get around it.
