[Mailman-Users] Mailman browswer question - initial set up

Hello,

I'm trying to install Mailman 2.1.4 on an HP-UX 11.00 machine.  I'm
using Apache 1.3.19.  I'm using the default URL set up in the
Defaults.py - which is our machine name 'my.host.name.edu'.  I haven't
added anything to the mm_cfg.py file.  I created the site list (at least
I think I did, where is that stored, anyway?).

When I'm on my web browser (IE) and I type http://my.host.name.edu:5556
- it brings up the generic Apache web page (5556 is our Apache port).
Now, what do I type to bring up the Mailman page?  If I type
http://my.host.name.edu/mailman - I get 'Cannot display page' and at the
bottom it says 'Cannot find server or DNS error'.

What am I doing wrong?  I'm not that familiar with list servers or web
servers.  I've just been told to install Mailman - so far, it's been
quite an ordeal!  Definitely a learning experience!

Thanks,
