There are at least three categories of trouble using FrontPage with Zope, that I know of:
1) FrontPage generates files and folders whose names start with "_", thereby breaking a cardinal Zope naming rule and causing those files and folders to be inaccessible (if done via LocalFS) or outright impossible (in Zope proper/ZODB). That is Zope specific. Other HTTP servers will not mind names beginning with '_'.
2) FrontPage uses custom HTTP-based RPCs to do file upload and administration. I know next to nothing about this, but I'm pretty sure that Zope does not support this extended HTTP protocol directly. Seems like it could though. Hugh, what is that "custom HTTP-based RPCs"? Never heard about this! Why does "FrontPage" not simply use "PUT"?
3) FrontPage uses its own library of server-based features, such as for counters. Seems, it wants only work together with IIS?
