Hello 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.
... 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) HTH :) Tino Wildenhain
