how to name realm (basic authen)
by Ulrich Wisser 01 Feb '02

01 Feb '02

Hello, my application uses basic authentication. The browser opens a window and the user is asked to authenticate for realm "Zope". How can I change that "Zope" to something like my applications name?

dear zopers ... has anyone ever tried to link swocket ( http://swocket.sourceforge.net ) to zope-resources ? i think it would be interesting to authenticate against acl_users and using the ZODB within the socket-server. ever heard about such an approach? .urs http://zope.hyperwerk.ch/ube/portfolio

Problems with editing Zope stuff via ftp from Emacs
by Christian Wittern 01 Feb '02

01 Feb '02

Dear Zopers, I have read the archives and googled the Web, but could not get this fixed: Connecting to my Zope from Emacs works fine, but after a while (some minutes), Emacs and Zope are confusing each other and lock. It appears that while I am looking at a file, Emacs suddenly starts thinking it is not a file, but a directory and tries to CD in there as hard as it can. The result is lines like this without endin the *ftp ..* buffer: ftp> cd /Control_Panel/Products/ZTopicMapN/xtopicmap/propertysheets/methods/getScope_py\ / 550 No such directory. ftp> cd /Control_Panel/Products/ZTopicMapN/xtopicmap/propertysheets/methods/getScope_py\ / 550 No such directory. ftp> cd /Control_Panel/Products/ZTopicMapN/xtopicmap/propertysheets/methods/getScope_py\ / 550 No such directory. Has anybody encountered this? Is there an easy fix for this? I am using Zope 2.5.0 on Debian GNU/Linux sid, Emacs is 21.1 Any help appreciated, Christian -- Christian Wittern Institute for Research in Humanities, Kyoto University 47 Higashiogura-cho, Kitashirakawa, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8265, JAPAN

Hi all: Could someone point me to some good documentation on creating/editing/managing users programmatically? I've been searching... but I must be searching for the wrong thing... Thanks, Damon.

using exceptions in python scripts
by roy＠anoobe.com 31 Jan '02

31 Jan '02

Dear Zope Users, Fairly new to Zope, but I am writing a Python Script. I would like to use exceptions in my processing flow, but the security restrictions won't allow it. What is the recommended approach here? For example, what I would like to do, but am not allowed to, is: # sample_py ---------------------------------------- request = container.REQUEST RESPONSE = request.RESPONSE try: username = request.get("username", None) if len(username)==0: raise "ZeroLengthUserName", None except: import sys # SECURITY won't allow print sys.exc_type; return printed # process username here... # return another dtml document/method return context.registered_ok_dtml(context,context.REQUEST) # end sample_py ---------------------------------------- Thanks, Roy Mathew. ps: please respond directly to me as well, if you could.

RE: [Zope] Zope Logout

Looking at the source for manage_zmi_logout might help you. This is extracted from Zope/lib/python/App/Management.py: def manage_zmi_logout(self, REQUEST, RESPONSE): """Logout current user""" p = getattr(REQUEST, '_logout_path', None) if p is not None: return apply(self.restrictedTraverse(p)) realm=RESPONSE.realm RESPONSE.setStatus(401) RESPONSE.setHeader('WWW-Authenticate', 'basic realm="%s"' % realm, 1) RESPONSE.setBody("""<html> <head><title>Logout</title></head> <body> <p> You have been logged out. </p> </body> </html>""") return Basically, it sets the header requiring authorization and does nothing with it. This way, the browser (hopefully) decides it doesn't need to store anymore authentication information. It generally, doesn't work that way though. Troy > Todd, thank you for your reply.
