Is TCP/IP needed to use ZServer for only "local" hosting? Is there another meathod (i.e. Java script) that a local host server can access zope pages?
nope.
Oh well, I was hopping to find something that will render Zope pages without having to open TCP/IP sockets, etc...
I was trying to avoid loading TCP/IP on my computer that I'll write & test my zope web sites for security reasons. I'll use NetBUI to transfer the files to my host after testing them out. thanks for any help!
No you cant test a webserver (Zserver as an example) without TCP/IP. Since HTTP uses TCP uses IP for transfer of data. See rfc2616 (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec6.html ) If you want security, NetBUI is much more insecure as TCP/IP for itself :) My advice: install TCP/IP, disable any services you dont need, including NetBUI over TCP/IP and Microsoft Printer/Datasharing and use ftp to move files around (better: use Zope and HTTP to move subtrees or the whole Zope-documenttree around)
Well, (not to get too off subject), I was going to use the NetBUI-for-file-sharing-only trick (both computers are on the same network), but I may use Linux on the web host. thanks Tino! ________________________________________________________________ Get FREE voicemail, fax and email at http://voicemail.excite.com Talk online at http://voicechat.excite.com
