I assume you knew how to unpack the Majordomo tarball on your mail 
server, so the fact that you don't know how to do likewise on your web 
server might mean you are breaking the cardinal rule of MajorCool: it 
must be installed ON THE MAJORDOMO SERVER,. Corollary to that rule: 
your Majordomo server MUST HAVE A WEB SERVER ON IT.

You need full shell access on the web server in order to run the 
Configure script. You cannot simply "upload" all the files and make it 
work.
