[Mailman-Users] stuck trying to install Mailman on virtual server at buehill.com

[Mark Rauterkus]

HI All,


I've a long-time webmaster and mailman list owner -- but I stink at
installs. I need some help. Generally I just do a vinstall mailman at
the shell prompt. Bingo. Done. But, that isn't an option. I've got two
accounts now at Bluehill.com.

I'm upgrading to a new box.

By the way, in my other, older FreeBSD box, my 8,000 contact list
exceeded the memory chunk for the virtual box. It crashes and sends
out fail messages.

I've tried this:

% su -l root

pkg_add -r mailman
Error: FTP Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.7-release/Latest/mai
lman.tgz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access
)
pkg_add: unable to fetch
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-
4.7-release/Latest/mailman.tgz' by URL

Then I tried this with the longer URL.

pkg_add -r
ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i366/packages-5-stable
/Latest/mailman.tbz
