Do you mean launching Zope through xinetd ?
Isn't it a big performance loss ?
No, you wouldn't want to do that, since it takes a while to launch... run zope (via init.d for example), but also run xinetd, set up to intercept anything on port 80. What I do (since I'm currently just running zServer behind xinetd, no Squid yet), is redirect that (port 80 on any interface) to localhost:8080 and run zope to use that port... that way nothing can get around xinetd... there are lots of similar ways to do it. Then, you have all of xinetd's logging, blocking, etc. facilities.
What a good idea ! I didn't know that xinetd can do port redirections like that. thanks for the tip. Jerome Alet
