Zopers, For the good of eveyone I combined the work of these people: http://www.zope.org/Members/Amos/XML-RPC http://collector.zope.org/Zope/525/collector_issue_contents http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/242bb7cc2b2c343d802568a... So Amos, Brad and Dieter repspectively. These fixed modules should: 1) Add basic HTTP authorization to XMLRPC calls. 2) return HTTP 401 in the event of an authorization failure. (I don't have time to install TCP dump on cygwin, can someone verify this for me?) 3) Return a compact traceback with all other xmlrpclib.Fault exceptions. Links to modules(sorry no diffs, just txt): http://www.geocities.com/dbasch/xmlrpc.txt http://www.geocities.com/dbasch/xmlrpclib.txt I haven't had time to test them very thoroughly so please let me know if anyone has problems. btw, im still relative newbie in Zope and im just combining the work of others here. So, if I did something horribly wrong, please let me know. It won't hurt my feelings :) Regards, Derek Basch __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
