Okay.... So I've got these two boxes, one Win98 and one Linux (RH6.0, not that it matters). Zope 2.3.0 on both. I've been playing with ZODBC, MS-SQL Server, and Zope in hopes of getting data across the OS barrier to the Linux box for web serving purposes. I have good database connectivity from the windows box, and I was looking around for the way to create a zope-to-zope connection to get ZSQL Methods from Windows into use on Linux. I thought SiteRoot looked promising.... But SiteRoot just made my linux zope a transparent interface to the windows zope. Worse, I can't seem to undo it, and setting site root again affects the windows zope, not the linux zope. This is a problem, because I want the non-database-driven docs to come from the linux box (due to load issues), not the windows box. So I have two questions. First, how *do* you get win/zope ZSQL Methods into linux/zope DTML docs? And second, is there any way (short of un/re-installing) to reset Site Root on my linux box to be the default instead of the windows machine?

I'm not sure what your first question means, but as for the second: You can always temporarily disable a SiteRoot by putting "_SUPPRESS_SITEROOT" in your management URL right after the name of the Folder that contains it. So, if your SiteRoot is in your root Folder, and your Zope is running on your local machine (port 80), you can go to: http://localhost/_SUPPRESS_SITEROOT/manage ...and delete or fix the SiteRoot. I get the vague impression that you are trying to use SiteAccess to link two Zopes together. It does nothing of the kind, it just allows you to adjust generated URLs. Cheers, Evan @ digicool & 4-am
