Zope and mod_proxy
Hi Is there any Linux distribution that install Apache and Zope so that caching with mod_proxy is there by default (as in http://www.zope.org/Members/rbeer/caching) Gerhard

I hope not. :-) You probably shouldn't run Apache until you understand how to configure it. This is doubly true when running proxy services. Look at the Apache docs on mod_proxy and pay particular attention to the part where they discuss securing your proxy. You may want to Google around for "open proxy" as well. HTH, Dylan

If I recall correctly, Debian ships with most every Apache module (either in the apache and apache-common packages, or in the various libapache* packages), but doesn't enable them all by default. I've certainly not been required to rebuild Apache for rewrite/proxy usage. However, Debian is an acquired taste. But it's easier to deal with if you go with the assumption that they know what they're doing more than the average rpm packager (slight joke there). -- Mike Renfro / R&D Engineer, Center for Manufacturing Research, 931 372-3601 / Tennessee Technological University -- renfro@tntech.edu

Indeed. I think that's true of most package-installed Apache setups... you get the most common modules (proxy, rewrite, etc) but they aren't loaded and/or turned on in the httpd.conf file. I'm not saying you need to roll your own Apache to use it... but some familiarity with the configaration is required, regardless of the distro. It seemed the OP was looking for a Zope-specific pre-configured Apache package. Dylan
Thanks Dylan, Mike Installing Debian was far easier than I expected, and after using apt-get I was really impressed Gerhard Dylan Reinhardt wrote:
