If you are a python person, think of _ as a dictionary. _['content'] returns the value that corresponds to the key 'content'. _[content] first evaluates content and tries to return the value that corresponds to the key stored in 'content'. Was that confusing ?! Now I'm confused :) Troy > -----Original Message----- > From: Jan Lentfer [mailto:Jan.Lentfer@web.de] > Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2001 11:53 AM > To: grizel(a)mouli.net; zope(a)zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope] Newbie question... > > > At 18:31 20.09.2001 +0200, you wrote: > > >You're not so far from the solution... > > > >Just try > > > ><dtml-in expr="_[content]"> > > <dtml-var whatever> > ></dtml-in> > > Thanks, > could someone please explain to me when and why to use the underscore? > I still didn't get that.

RE: [Zope] Zope / Apache conflict

I generally will use the -X option to disable all servers that I do not _explicitly_ enable. Something like -X -P Zope.cgi -f 8021 Disables all servers, uses Zope.cgi for PCGI through apache and port 8021 for FTP.

I mean it's clear that hitting a server with a _client_ program (i.e. my browser) can have unknown - to me - side effects like generating log-entries or formatting bill gates harddrive. But we are talking about a document format here which is generally seen as "passive", as an "offline" format and its application as an not net-aware application - not a network client. When I tried it a was stunned that even that innocent pdf-format has the capability to phone home. cheers, oliver

This is really strang IMO. I already have a working zope 2.4.0 install on this machine, but I am installing a new/seperate zope 2.4.1 When I start up the new zope install I get the following error when I surf to it. Oh, and the other zope is stopped when I do this....

Yeah, prominent examples being microsoft and adobe. http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/overview5.html I didn't find the right link for word, but www.yet2.com has a word file online which you can presumably (I don't have word) use to submit your information online after filling it out offline. Btw, http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/2002/articles/oPlanForNewBaby.aspx wtf is that? Oh my I tried adobe's solution a little bit, and it works well. One should know that these capablities can be used for really privacy intruding things. It's possible to create hidden forms on a pdf-page which submit on pageview in acrobat, really scary. cheers, oliver

RE: [Zope] memory leaks and worms

If anyone can verify that this is acutally a problem, I'll apply the Squid ACLs on my Proxy today... I wasn't too worried since I don't run any II$ servers, but if there is an accidental effect of denial-of-service... Anyone know if this might acutally be a problem, or the nature of it?

If you have your Zope connected to the internet then there are lots of good reasons to use a front-end proxy, such as Squid or Apache/mod_proxy, rather than exposing a 'raw' ZServer. medusa's http implementation (used by ZServer) is not as robust as it could be, and there are several denial-of-service attacks which are blocked by Squid and Apache in their default configurations. The Squid mailing list today had some posts discussing rules for blocking such requests.
