Question regarding exposing Zope on port 80
Good morning: I'm a Zope Newbie, and have read most of The Zope Book. The functionality of this application is incredible, and it looks promising for what I want to do; however, I'm having some issues figuring one small thing out. Once I create the application framework, I don't want to have to tell my users to append ":8080" to the end of the web address that they'll be coming in to. Is there a redirector that I'm missing? Or is there a switch that makes Zope's webserver listen on 8080? I know I'm probably just missing something in the documentation; however, if someone could help me out, I'd be extremely grateful. Thank you, Sean Bossinger
hi, start your zope with the option -w 80 and have a look at z2.py for further options. cheers, maik Sean Bossinger wrote:

For Unix, it is not so easy, as all ports below 1024 are priviledged and only "root" can bind to them. You can start Zope as "root" (and use the Windows setup) (not recommended) or use Zope behind an Apache or Squid (HowTos on Zope.org). Dieter
