Has anyone gotten this to work properly?

MajorCool appears to work correctly, but I would like to automate the
process of creating and deleting the lists.

I've copied the files to the /usr/local/majordomo directory.
chown majordom.majordom mj_create_list
chmod +x mj_create_list

That didn't work, so I used the following path in majorcool's configure:
/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper mj_create_list

This didn't give me any errors.  It just ignored the entry and e-mailed
me
a request to create the list.  (I noticed the script doesn't seem to
like
passing the mj_create_list parameter.  It just wants a file.)

Apache runs as user httpd.

If I su httpd and run "./wrapper mj_create_list . . ." the command works
fine.  I've tried it from several accounts.  I just can't get it to run
from the webpage.

This is the result of the create attempt:

mj_create_list: access denied
Validating permissions...

Anyone have a little more detail on these /contrib utilites?
