But does that mean that one is always using Apache mapped down one level into the Zope hierarchy to avoid urls like http://mysite.com/mysite/? And what if you are using ZServer directly? then do you have to use the Virtual Host Monster to remap the url?
Yes and yes. Since it's an aesthetic issue, the value of doing this is totally up to you.
(And am I the only one who thinks it is weird to have a specialty web server (presumably for specific functionality) and then ALWAYS proxy it through a different web server?)
It's less weird if you think of Zope as a development platform... that's where it excels. As a web server, it's merely adequate. Zope's built-in web server is good enough for a decent range of applications... but since it's just as easy to run best-of-breed software in both roles, that's what most people here choose to do. $.02, Dylan
