Greetings
For security reasons, I would like to do web administration of remote Zope installations via ssh port forwarding. For instance, while running
ssh -g -L 8080:foo.bar:8080 foo.bar
one can access a ZServer on foo.bar:8080 using http://localhost:8080/.
However, I'm using Apache with ZServer and SiteAccess for virtual hosting as documented in http://www.zope.org/Members/anser/apache_zserver, and this has a nasty implication: once I activate a SiteRoot inside some Zope folder "/parrot" for making it the top folder of a virtual host http://parrot.bar/, the use of URLs under http://parrot.bar/ is forced whenever administering content under the "/parrot" folder, even if arriving from a foo.bar:8080 document: the browser is then no longer connecting through the secure channel but talking directly with http://parrot.bar/. Of course this could also be redirected, but not so easily.
In this example, it would be nice to be able to administer the contents of http://parrot.bar/ either via parrot.bar (typically for less sensitive content, end users) or via foo.bar:8080 (more delicate administrative tasks, administrators which know how to encrypt communication with ssh). Is there interest (or is it feasible) to make virtual hosting support evolve to allow this? (I didn't think much about the implications, but can already notice a problem under the virtual hosting strategy above (ZServer+Apache): how to make Zope "guess" if it should write absolute URLs for parrot.bar or for foo.bar:8080?)
Even better would be web content administration under SSL, of course :)
