I am just getting started with Zope and have run across the following installation issue. It appears that I have installed successfully, as I can bring up the manage screen on the server by typing http://192.168.0.5:8080/manage (where the 192, etc is the ip address of the local host). However, when I type that on any other system (ok there's only one) on the network, I get a 'page cannot be displayed message' after a long wait. The server is running red hat 3.2.3, Python 2.3 and Zope 2.7. The client that can't find the server is XP, with IE version 6.0... When my server is running apache, my client can find it just fine. However, based on what I've read, it would make more sense to run Zserver since the machine will be a dedicated zope box. Right? Thanks for your help. Mike

Make sure that port 8080 is not blocked by your linux box's firewall. If your box installed correctly, it _should_ be blocked, as any other port not occupied by a public service (Apache, proftpd, etc.) . You should allow access to 8080 manually. Another possibility is wrong proxy settings on your XP box (if you use proxy though).
The server is running red hat 3.2.3,
Where did you get such an ancient RedHat? I think it is from mid-90th :)

The Right Thing (tm) is to use Zope behind Apache using VirtualHostMonster on the Zope side and mod_rewrite with RewriteRule directive on Apache's side.
