Great job! Let us know how it turns out once you have everything running. I would like to know what particular problem this solves. I may have run into something like this.

IT WORKS!! It's very slow, and I still have to work out some authentication issues, but I just successfully attached a file in Outlook 2000. ZEO is storing the file, Zope is serving it, davfs is mounting the whole site as a filesystem, Samba is exporting it, and all Windows has to do is map the SMB share and let Outlook access it. Here's what I have:
RedHat 7.2 (2.4.9 kernel), davfs 0.2.3, Samba 2.2.1, Zope 2.5.0, ZEO 1.0b5. On the client side, Win2000SP2, Office2000SP2. For those that are interested, WebDrive on the client did the job much better than this server setup, but I'm still doubtful that they'll let me insist on a client-side solution. I still may not win the fight, but at least I now have more ammunition.
Thank you so much to all who chimed in.
Craig

Not wild at all - very practical with our setup. I'm starting the prototype now - THANKS!!!

Regarding WebDAV, a completely wild suggestion: why not try davfs on a Linux box running Samba as a SMB->DAV proxy? Then just mount the SMB share of your Zope root as a drive letter or create a shortcut to the share folder on everyone's desktops... You could find an old PC, throw Linux on it, and use it in this manner?
I haven't done this, but the idea seems like an interesting, free, and likely possible solution, at least for something as simple as getting documents into Outlook, etc.
