Hi all, Just one of those things that keeps popping up on my list of 'things I should try': Zope behind the Tux webserver. For those who do not know: Tux is a very fast webserver for Linux because it operates at kernel level. It can pass requests it can't handle to another server, ZServer for example. Any tried it already? Cya Jonathan

Are you sure Tux will help in conjunction with Zope ? AFAIK Tux can only handle static html pages and nothing more. Any request to dynamic pages (and I wold consider any Zope powered system being 100% dynamic) has to be passed to another (user-level) webserver. So IMHO in the case of Zope this would be no improvement at all. But that's just my thoughts, please correct me, if I'm wrong. mailx, ta -------------------------------------------------------------------------- smartferret it-consulting Dipl.-Ing.

Yes, Tux can only serve static content, but images in dynamically created HTML pages behave exactly the same as images in static web sites. How should the web browser know that a page was served by a dynamic server? It gets every single image by sending a new HTTP request. So of course the images (and all other static stuff like sound files, PDF documents etc.) can be served by Tux after the corresponding HTML page was served by Zope! Cheers, Joachim.
