Hi Tino!
I checked z2.py, yet I do not know how to modify the following /etc/httpd/zope.conf: It is all Greek to me.
This may sound a bit harsh, but beside there are legions of people doing so, you should not run a public accessible server with such less knowledge. Without understanding whats going on and how to find out, you may and probably will cause trouble for yourself and for others in future. Its not so hard for web servers, but who knows what else is running on your host. I myself definitely agree with you, as a wrong configuration can do more harm, than good. I may add, however, this is not a public accessible server.
What should you do? Either try to get one who is responsible for administrative tasks of your site if this is work-related. No, it is not work related at all. It is a standalone Linux pc (Apache, Zope, ...) with a Virtual XP client (VMware) on it for testing purposes only.
Or carefully read documentation related to the software you are running. There is decent documentation for Apache and for many other software you might be running. Nobody can do this for you, I'm sorry. Naturally, as in this case, I've read the fine manual first, although I have not found what I was looking for.
You can of course get help on details of software you cant gasp. People here and in many mailing lists will be very helpful since this is all hard stuff sometimes. That is why, I wrote my 1st e-mail. I have expected people would give me some advice. There are plenty of docs related with Zope and Apache, yet I have not found the one I badly need. Any suggestions, then? I do love reading ...
But the most basic stuff has to be done by you. As it has been done before.
Keep care I try.
