The first version of ImportNTGroups, a product that imports all the groups you have defined in your NT domain as Zope roles, has been released. ImportNTGroups works together with jcNTUserFolder. If you create a jcNTUserFolder, all the users you have defined in your NT domain appear automatically. With this product, all this imported NT users are automatically assigned the roles of the groups they belong to, and when you want to change the permissions of any Zope object, all the groups appear as roles too.

New version of ZCGI
by Adrian Hungate 04 Feb '02

04 Feb '02

Version 1.1.0 of ZCGI is now available. ZCGI is designed to bridge the gap between traditional web design, and Zope. In a traditional web environment, if you want server-side processing, you write/buy/borrow a CGI-BIN script, put it in a folder that supports the CGI-BIN protocol, and then call it from a link or form on one of your HTML pages. ZCGI was originally designed to do just this, and allow people to slowly move from CGI-BIN to Zope External Methods, Python Scripts, or Python Products, but as the project has progressed, and especially after I released 1.0.0 I realized that there are a LOT of excellant CGI-BIN products out there, and it is simply not feasable to have users or authors transition to fully Zope execution (http://cvs.zope.org and uses an excellant CGI-BIN called viewcvs). So, instead of simply making the transition to Zope easier, I have now focused on making as many (Often badly written, or only marginally conformant) CGI-BIN scripts as possible able to run directly under Zope. This release gets MUCH closer with the addition of reliable handling of PATH_INFO and redirects among many other changes. Many thanks for valuable assistance bug hunting and squashing go to Marc Lindahl - http://www.zope.org/Members/bowerymarc who helped me immensely throughout this development cycle. The new version is available from http://www.zope.org/Members/haqa and now, for the first time (And thanks to ZCGI) from http://cvs.haqa.co.uk/viewcvs/ZCGI !!
