Well, if I go to set local roles with ExUserFolder and SMB, I get a Error Type: TypeError Error Value: len() of unsized object traceback. In addition, the domain has 500 users and I only want to give access to less than 50. That would be a lot of manual clicking to set 500 local roles. > Setting roles with XUF and smb auth source is not very easy, but it > seems it can be done I'm looking for hints. I could always try to hack in an explicit user list into the smb auth method but I wanted to see if anyone else had done something like this to make sure I was not re-inventing any wheels.

hi, played with 2.5.0b (linux bin-dist). when i tried to import python-scripts from 2.4.3 i got IO-Errors. is it a bug, a broken installation (but it was quite fresh) or a new security feature? thank u. maik jablonski. Traceback: Error Type: IOError Error Value: [Errno 5] Input/output error Traceback (innermost last): File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 151, in publish_module File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 115, in publish File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 158, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Zope) File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 99, in publish File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 88, in mapply (Object: manage_importObject) File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 40, in call_object (Object: manage_importObject) File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 504, in manage_importObject (Object: Zope) File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 522, in _importObjectFromFile (Object: Zope) File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/CopySupport.py, line 312, in _verifyObjectPaste (Object: Zope) File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 493, in setstate File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/zLOG/__init__.py, line 129, in LOG File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZLogger/ZLogger.py, line 17, in log_write File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZLogger/stupidFileLogger.py, line 27, in __call__ File /home/Zope-2.5.0b3-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZLogger/stupidFileLogger.py, line 79, in stupid_log_write IOError: (see above)

logging in a user
by Steven Turoff 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

Greetings, My site does not allow anonymous users at all. I have written a simple dtml form and method to allow a user to change their password (uses a proxy role). However, as soon as the user's password has been changed, they can no longer view the site unless they log in again. Is it possible to automatically log them in using their new password? Many thanks, Steve

hi looks like this is announce week :P so, here goes. i've built a site that hopefully will cater for ratings/comments of Products and howtos. there's also news/rant/etc by the side. http://www.my-zope.org i hope i have not stepped on anybody's toes by d/l all products metadata and howtos from zope.org and putting it there. the goal of the site: -a place where product/howto authors and users/community meet and comment/rate the products they use -help in collecting best of products that work together; e.g a weblog would likely need Squishdot, poll, zubb, etc etc -others this site is still beta, and hopefully last longer than a Windoze box uptime ;) engine specs: XUF, SempoiNews, Ratings, and most of all - Zope-2.4.x comments/flames/etc welcome thanks

Re: [Zope] objectValues value for Zdiscussions
by T.J. Sullivan 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

That was the first one I tried. I am very much a Newbie with zope, but here is the code I am using. <ul> <dtml-in expr="objectValues('ZDiscussionsTopic')"> <li><a href="&dtml-absolute_url;"><dtml-var title_or_id></a></li><br> </dtml-in> </ul> I also tried filling in the space with a %20 to no avail. I am probably missing something very simple, but I am unable to see it. TJ Casey Duncan wrote: > On Tuesday 08 January 2002 03:40 pm, T.J.

SMB authentication
by Magnuson.Erik 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

I'm trying to setup SMB authentication using Zope 2.3.3/Python 2.1.1p3/RH 7.1 authenticating against Win2k domain servers. exUserFolder will authenticate usernames in this setup, but I'd like to limit the authorized users to only an explicit subset of the domain users. I don't see any obvious way to do this in exUserFolder. smbUserFolder would do exactly what I want, but I've been unable to get the authentication module to work correctly (pam_smb-1.1.6/smb-valid-0.5/smbUserFolder.0.1). It does not seem to connect correctly to either the PDC or the BDC (i.e., NTV_SERVER_ERROR) Any suggestions for either exUserFolder or smbUserFolder? Thanks -- Erik

ZCatalog - How to Meta-Type the Relative Path?
by Maik Jablonski 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

hello, i want to add the relative path of my objects to the meta-types of a ZCatalog. how do i do that? i tried "absolute_url", but that's a mess, when you talk to your zope as http://localhost:8080... then the paths include 'localhost'... exporting to a production server would fail. so my personal workaround is: <dtml-var "myCatalog.getpath(data_record_id_)"> but is there another (simpler) solution for my dumb web-designers, who only grasp simple <dtml-var variable> -syntax? by the way: what's the standard 'path'-property in an ZCatalog-Index for? seem's to be always empty... thank u in advance. maik.

Request for Proposal: developpement of a human resources management system in Brussels
by Nicolas Pettiaux 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

Could be of interest to any of you. (For the French readers: this message is in English in order to broaden the audience, but the RFP is in French) The Cocof (Commission Communautaire française, see http://www.cocof.be) has just released a public request for proposal (RFP) for which the proposals must be entered by January 29, 2002 and for which there will be a public answer to questions on January 22, 2002 in Brussels. The offer is supposed to fit a national advertising only that has taken place, which amounts to roughly maximum 200.000 EUR. The request concerns the analysis, conceptual and functional, as well as the developpement of a human resources management system, essentially a databased based system with some specific functionnalities (like simulations). Initially, it is not supposed to be a full HRM system, but eventually this could lead or interface to such a system. It is requested that the system to be developped be free software. If it could use any free software resources already in existence related to HRM, that would save a lot of energy. Any suggestion/idea would be most welcome. The RFP (in French only, sorry) is available by Mrs Sylvie Risopoulos that can be joined at srisopoulos(a)cocof.be or by phone at +32.(0)800.80.00 More info could also be obtained wth me. Best regards, Nicolas -- Nicolas Pettiaux Avenue du Pérou 29 B-1000 Brussels

Using Python Modules with Zope
by MarkM＠Yogananda-SRF.org 10 Jan '02

10 Jan '02

I new to Zope. I'm attempting to access Python modules from within Zope. These modules are programs we've written, that import stuff like wxWindows or our .py modules. The "Extensions" folder is not the thing to use, apparently. I'm not clear if adding an "External Method" or "Script" is the thing to do. None of the books we have talk clearly about how to do this. I need some step-by-step directions with this. Any suggestions? Thanks! Mark
