I have a semi-urgent problem. Set up a VHM Monster mapped to url www.foo.com:8080/foo

127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.0.1 www.foo.com
The Problem: when I run the address www.foo.com I am required to submit a user name and password,
Given the setup you describe, when you connect to www.foo.com, you're connecting to port *80* on localhost. It's quite possible that you already have something else (like IIS) running on 80. You can't log in because neither of your Zope users are recognized by that system.
2/ creating the foo folder as a manager as oposed to super user, I read this might make a difference
The super user serves one primary purpose: creating a manager. IMO, the first four things you should do with any Zope setup are: 1. Log in as the initial (super) user. 2. Create a manager user 3. Delete the initial user 4. Re-authenticate as the manager HTH, Dylan
