Dan, one word of caution about apache2. I don't know about redhat, but Suse (8.1) comes with apache 2.0.40 (IIRC). This version is not production quality, as far as some feature are concerned that are quite typical to be used with zope. (Disk based) caching and mod_proxy in virtual hosts didn't work for me, and I can confirm this is indeed a bug (known to the apache developers). The problem was that this wasn't documentend prominently, and the bug just caused apache to never deliver pages from the cache, while it still created files in the cache dir. I found this out only because I was doing some benchmarks. So, if you don't need apache2 features, I'd consider using apache 1. cheers, oliver
