Re: [Zope] apache authentication with proxy -- remote user mode

... and it works, but that can only be a temporary solution. the problem is that if i do this, users can easily be faked by just using another apache proxy which authenticates users with the same name. therefore a domain restriction needs to be applied.

This temporary solution can be made more secure by using your favorite of ipchains/iptables/pf/ipfilter/similar on the Zope box to allow access to the Zope port from your Apache a.b.c.d/32 proxy address only. You can still access Zope directly if necessary by port forwarding over SSH or similar. Adam
