Re: Zope FreeBSD Distribution

Responding to the digest, so I may be a little behind. I got python compiled with threads, then compiled Zope. Everything seemed fine. I tried to run zpassword.py, but it couldn't find SHA in the FreeBSD python. Does anyone know where to get sha.py?

Re: [Zope] Self-Registration Script.
by Kevin Dangoor 20 Aug '99

The new Zope beta site does this :) Probably the thing you want to do is use "Proxy Roles". You can make a DTML method with a Proxy Role of "Manager", but have the method viewable by anonymous... That DTML method will be able to do anything a Manager can do.

So, for example, if I create a navigation header to be used in a number of pages, a DTML Method would be the ticket, right? It still seems to me that if DTML Documents are more flexible with their ability to have properties, why would you need DTML Methods? I understand some of what you've written above, and I suspect that it explains why DTML Methods are so useful. I'll study it more. What's the typical DTML Document/DTML Method ratio? Also, is it possible to convert a DTML Document to a Method? How about vice versa? -Tim -- Timothy Wilson | "The faster you | Check out: Henry Sibley H.S. | go, the shorter | http://slashdot.org/ W.
