On the host which serves ML driver, you can use CUI (makefml and fml) and edit all configuration files as you like. It implies you are the greatest administrator :)

makefml of fml8 is same as fml4 as could as possible to preserve compatibility.

See the Section called Difference between fml4 and fml8: CUI in Chapter 8 on the detail of the difference.

On the host

You need no confirmation in using makefml.

Person who can login the host of mailing list server has priviledge for all ML's on the host. So, He/She can edit all configuration files.

But He/She may do wrong operations.

To avoid careless wrong operations, in usual cases you should use CUI (makefml or fml) to configure fml. Of course you can edit files directly if you can understand fml structures. By default we recommend you should use CUI even on the host.

fml command is same as makefml command except for the argument order.
