AuthName and Z_REALM
by Peter Bengtsson 21 Feb '01

21 Feb '01

I know I've seen a good reply here on the zope mailinglist about how to change the login realm using Apache-VirtualHosts-Proxypassing. What I want is that, when "going /manage" at any place on the server, it should still say Realm: Zope on the little box that the web browser shows whilst asking for username and password. Except! When you go to one of those folders in my site that's using a SiteRoot together with a VirtualHost in httpd/conf. How do I do this? Here's what it can look like today. <VirtualHost nsdemo.overnetdata.com> ServerAdmin peter.bengtsson(a)overnetdata.com ErrorLog logs/zope-gmislite-error_log TransferLog logs/zope-gmislite-access_log ServerName nsdemo.overnetdata.com ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/Projects/gmislite/members/nsdemo/ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8080/Projects/gmislite/members/nsdemo/ ProxyPass /p_ http://127.0.0.1:8080/p_ ProxyPass /misc_ http://127.0.0.1:8080/misc_ </VirtualHost> Best, Peter

zope-2.2.5, zcatalog and random key error
by bak ＠ kedai 21 Feb '01

21 Feb '01

hi i've commited myself, and took the plunge. i use zope-2.2.5 and zcatalog to serve news articles. articles are catalogaware, and catalog itself when added. navigation, presentation relies on zcatalog. which is good and fast. what's not good though is that i still get the random key error. updating the catalog clears everything up. what caused this error? this is bad, when users come to a page and is greeted with key error. very baad. i'm not sure whether this is cleared in 2.3.x. i think i saw this error once at zope.org what are your experiences? my neck is on the chopping block now :( i hope to try 2.3.x soon, but i'll need to test that out on a dev machine first. help..? thanks

AW: [Zope] Understanding dtml and/or its variables
by Bartakovic, Damir 21 Feb '01

Hi, thanks. I thought I have the lastest version :( On zope.org ( http://www.zope.org/Members/zwork/Znolk_SQL_Wizard/index_html ) there is no version 0.1.3d! After searching a bit on bluedynamics I found it. Maybe someone can upload the newest version to zope.org or set a link to bluedynamics.

> So does this work with Zope 2.3 now? yes it should I've done fairly minimal testing, and it works for me, but the way it is written, it is likely that it will run with any zope release that does not change the standard user folder too much. regards, jephte.clain(a)univ-reunion.fr

Re: [Zope] NT Authentication
by jimbo 21 Feb '01

Hello, jcNTUserFolder worked for me using an earlier version of it on Zope 2.3. A new version has just been released and I'll probably will check it out in a few days against 2.3. With it I was able to authenticate and give roles to users from other domains. I would say since Python has good support for winnt services, choosing Zope with jcNTUserFolder is the way to go. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Ricardo Bánffy <rbanffy(a)mac.com> Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2001 12:32:30 -0300 >Hi > >We were asked to install a Zope server over Windows NT.
