Oh, that's an idea. To tell the truth, another person and I have debated whether is makes sense to put separate plone sites in separate folders and make a VirtualHost with each one OR just place each plone instance at Root.
In general, the root of the zodb should be considered "special" and not directly used to store content. It is always advisable to create a folder (or folders) in the root of the zodb and build a site from within it (them), rather than directly mapping the root URI of the site to the root of the zodb. This is because there exist a number of special objects (HelpSys, Control_Panel, etc.) in the root folder which shouldn't be publically exposed if they have no good reason to be. Of course, even when you store your site content entirely within a folder in the root of the zodb, if you don't change the default permissions of root container these special objects will still be traversable thanks to acquistion, so you'll need to investigate the root container permissions and lock them down to gain any real advtange from this layout. -- Jamie Heilman http://audible.transient.net/~jamie/ "Most people wouldn't know music if it came up and bit them on the ass." -Frank Zappa
