Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't
either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository.

+4 Check your installation</a>
+</h1>
+
+<p>
+After you've run <b class="program">make install</b>, you should check that your
+installation has all the correct permissions and group ownerships by running
+the <b class="program">check_perms</b> script. First change to the installation
+(i.e. <var>$prefix</var>) directory, then run the <b class="program">bin/check_perms</b>
+program. Don't try to run bin/check_perms from the source directory; it will
+only run from the installation directory.
+
+<p>
+If this reports no problems, then it's very likely &lt;wink&gt; that your
+installation is set up correctly. If it reports problems, then you can either
+fix them manually, re-run the installation, or use <b class="program">bin/check_perms</b>
+to fix the problems (probably the easiest solution):
+
+<p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>You need to become the user that did the installation, and that owns all
+ the files in <var>$prefix</var>, or root.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>Run <b class="program">bin/check_perms -f</b>
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>Repeat previous step until no more errors are reported!
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+<div class="warning"><b class="label">Warning:</b>
+
+If you're running Mailman on a shared multiuser system, and you have mailing
+lists with private archives, you may want to hide the private archive
+directory from other users on your system. In that case, you should drop the
+other execute permission (o-x) from the <span class="file">archives/private</span> directory.
+However, the web server process must be able to follow the symbolic link in
+public directory, otherwise your public Pipermail archives will not work. To
+set this up, become root and run the following commands:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+# cd &lt;prefix&gt;/archives
+# chown &lt;web-server-user&gt; private
+# chmod o-x private
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+You need to know what user your web server runs as. It may be <code>www</code>,
+<code>apache</code>, <code>httpd</code> or <code>nobody</code>, depending on your server's
+configuration.
