Changing Zope's 'basic realm'
I'm building a WAP service using Zope and basic HTTP authentication. I've noticed that when refused a URL because user is unauthorised some WAP cell phones display prompts like 'Authentication required for Zope' to the user. I would like to change this prompt to match my product's name (otherwise users are likely to become confused) but I can't quite figure out how... So far I've tried (without luck): 1) Changing the hardcoded 'realm' attribute in ZPublisher/HTTPResponse.py and restarting Zope. 2) Changing the Root folder title property. Am I missing something? Can anybody suggest a solution?

Change it by setting a Z_REALM environment variable before you start Zope. http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/realmtip ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stuart Nicholson" <stuart.nicholson@wirelessdatanz.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2001 8:11 PM Subject: [Zope] Changing Zope's 'basic realm'
