On the current major browsers, you can switch on confirmation on cookies. You'll be show the exact cookie contents of a cookie and will be asked whether or not you want to accept it.

On the Basic tab of your ZClass, the italic icon field is the URL of the image, relative to the root URL of your Zope installation. If you replace this with the relative URL of another icon, say misc_/OFSP/Folder_icon.gif for the Folder icon, your ZClass will be displayed with that URL for its icon. Make sure you create the ZClass without an initial image, otherwise this initial image will still take up space in the ZODB until the ZClass is removed, even though you do not use it. -- Martijn Pieters, Software Engineer | Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org | mailto:mj@digicool.com ICQ: 4532236 | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 -------------------------------------------

WebDAV security
by Joachim Werner 08 Jan '00

08 Jan '00

I have got a local configuration with a Linux server currently running Zope 2.1.1 for evaluation and some other machines, including a Win98 Notebook, connected to the server via Ethernet. The good thing is that I can use WebDAV to see and modify the Zope folders/objects from Internet Explorer 5.0 on the Win98 machine. The bad thing: There seems to be NO AUTHENTICATION needed to do this! I tried first on the Win98 itself with a local Zope. My guess was that it automatically accepts local connections as allowed. But when I "WebDAVed" into the Zope on the Linux machine, it was accessible, too. O.K., my Win98 uses a valid user/password on the Linux machine needed for Samba, so I tried with a different logon and Zope still was very open for WebDAV connections! Same with Win98 running in a VMWare box on another Linux machine! Is this a "feature" or a bug? If WebDAV was totally "open" by default, this would be a major security issue! The Linux server machine is also running SQUID as a proxy server for the other machines. Could that be part of the problem? If it is a security issue (tI think so), Is that problem still there in Zope 2.1.2? Joachim Werner

(1) For the python external methods, you have click on the method in the management screen, and then click on the "Edit" button. You have to do this every time you make a change to the external python file. I know, the button shouldn't be named "Edit": "Update" would be more a more appropriate name. (2) DTML changes are detected. Just make sure you click on the "Change" button. >How can I list a dictionary (e.g the REQUEST) with dtml. >In python I would do the following: >for i in REQUEST.keys(): > print "%s=%s"%(i,REQUEST[i]) (3) <dtml-var REQUEST> prints out all the items. No need to iterate. But if you really want to iterate, you can do: <dtml-in "REQUEST.keys()"> <dtml-var sequence-item> <dtml-var "REQUEST[_['sequence-item']]"> </dtml-in> >And with DTML? Here is the peace of dtml I came up with. >But it doesn't work! I look in documenation but ... >What is wrong? (4) "piece", not "peace". :) ><dtml-in "REQUEST.keys()"> > <dtml-var sequence-item>=<dtml-var "REQUEST[sequence-item]" > ></dtml-in> (5) Arghh... see, Zope designers wrote in Python, but deep down they were still thinking in Perl. Which explains the many bizarre behavior of the DTML syntax. Anyway, the short answer is: sequence-item is not a valid name after you put it in between quotes. That is, "... sequence-item ..." is equivalent to "... sequence - item ..." So you were performing a subtraction operation, without knowing it. :) The way out is to access the sequence-item with the namespace variable "_". In your case: <dtml-in "REQUEST.keys()"> <dtml-var sequence-item> = <dtml-var "REQUEST[_['sequence-item']]" </dtml-in> The "_" behaves like a dictionary. But you cannot always treat it as an ordinary dictionary. For instance, the expressions <dtml-var _> <dtml-var "_"> <dtml-in "_.keys()"> will not work. DTML is pretty messy the way it is today. It smells like Perl, quacks like Perl, waddles like Perl. But... then... it is also free. I just wish it were free and as good as Python. :) Is that too much to ask? :) (No need to answer, it is.) :) regards, Hung Jung ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

userdb: popup widow when auth fail [Q]
by Bruno Mattarollo 08 Jan '00

08 Jan '00

Hello... I am a site where I use UserDB (with cookie-authentication) to validate users. I have a folder where I placed an index_html file that contains something like this: <dtml-if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()=='Anonymous User'"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setBase('http://izote.infosys.com.ar/Zope/research/acl_users')"> <dtml-with acl_users> <dtml-var docLogin> </dtml-with> <dtml-else> ... [ the document goes here ] ... I have tryied setting up the permissions on the "research" folder and unchecked the "Acquire permissions" from the "security tab" for the "Access content", "FTP Access" and "View". I have two local roles "Member" and "Client", I checked the combos for this two roles. I also selected the "Manager" role in the "proxy" tab of the docLogin DTML from the UserDB acl_users folder. When I try to access the URL http://izote.infosys.com.ar/Zope/research/ I get the following traceback:  What I am doing wrong? If I don't uncheck all the "Acquire permissions" from the security tab of the folder I can use the login, because I am doing the "dtml-if" statement on the DTML-document, but I presume that's not the way it's suposed to work. My docLogin file uses the <dtml-var standar_html_header> tags, that's why I put the "proxy" role. The problem that's annoying me, and that's why I am asking this question, is that with my method (the dtml-if in the index_html) whenever a user put's a wrong user/password, he/she gets the pop-up window prompting for user/password. I do not want that to happen. Can someone give me a hint on what I am doing wrong? TIA /B Bruno Mattarollo <brunomadv(a)ciudad.com.ar>

Debugging and DTML
by administrator＠consotec.de 08 Jan '00

Hello, I'm developing a product for ZOPE. Because changes in the python and dtml files are not detected I need to restart the ZOPE server all the time. Is there a way get around this? How can I list a dictionary (e.g the REQUEST) with dtml. In python I would do the following: for i in REQUEST.keys(): print "%s=%s"%(i,REQUEST[i]) And with DTML? Here is the peace of dtml I came up with. But it doesn't work! I look in documenation but ... What is wrong? <dtml-in "REQUEST.keys()"> <dtml-var sequence-item>=<dtml-var "REQUEST[sequence-item]" > </dtml-in> Thanks Alfons

I'm trying to find some way to get zope interfaced with MySQL, however, I don't have the compilers neccesary to build the binaries out of the source. Is there anywhere to find pre-compiled binaries for windows NT? Or for linux redhat? If someone wouldn't mind attaching thier compiled version I would be grateful Thanks! -e-
