How does zope get all the requests vectored through it to do the content management? 1/ 'mod_rewrite'? 2/ a special module linked into apache? 3/ an *.exe that is put into the cgi-bin directory and somehow gets all requests? -- If You want to buy computer parts, see the reviews at: http://www.cnet.com/ **OR EVEN BETTER COMPILATIONS**!! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/userreviews/products/

I think you must elaborate a bit. Or use standard terminology. Perhaps an answer is: Zopes runs it's own webserver. Sometimes it runs on port 80 and needs no other webserver. You could also run it at port ie. 8080 and do a proxy pass from Apache. regards Max M

Through an http port.
1/ 'mod_rewrite'?
Yes if you need to have an apache in front of it yes. Proxypass can be used to. But you don't need the Apache. In fact, it's just in the way.

Not if you want Apache to do things Zope doesn't. Like use PAM authentication. -- Bruce

If I understand you correctly....
1/ 'mod_rewrite'?
Yes, if you like. Many people do this.
2/ a special module linked into apache? 3/ an *.exe that is put into the cgi-bin directory and somehow gets all requests?
you can use mod_pcgi to pass requests to a pcgi executable wrapper, or you can use apache proxypass to pass each request to the wrapper. Finally, you can use none of the above and use Zope's built in web server. seb

Zope is not Apache although it can be used in conjunction with it. Zope is a web server designed such that it can dynamically construct all web pages it delivers. If you want to understand it you would be well advised to download it from www.zope.org and try a test installation. That and/or looking at one of the books about Zope will give you a better understanding of what Zope is.
