RE: [Zope] CMF Site as default zope site
Stefan, In addition to use of a VHM as George recommends, it is worth adding that you either want to be using Apache or Squid in front of Zope (with URL rewriting abilities; make your forward web-server's url rewrite rules look similar to the suggestions in the documentation in your VHM instance; Apache uses mod_rewrite, and Squid can use a 'redirector' of your choice). In Apache, you set up the rewrite rules in each virtual host entry in httpd.conf (though I think in Apache you can only do path rewrites?). In Squid, you use a redirector of your choice (I like http://freshmeat.net/projects/pyredir) to control redirection (aka rewriting of back end urls for the proxy). One other note on Virtual hosting and Plone and/or CMF sites: an interesting practice is the idea of using a single physical CMF site providing a unified software and content base but having multiple skins, each representing a different virtual host. This utiltizes the toggleSkin recipe on zopelabs (you can search for it there). This is useful in some, but not all situations (and may likely not be useful in your situation, but on a discussion about virtual hosting and CMF/Plone, it is worth bringing up).

How do I get a Plone Site in Zope (CMF Plone) as default site. I can access right now with http://domain/Plone but I want it to be http://domain <http://domain/>
use Site Access with Mapping (Virtual Host Monster). this will enable you to map domains to paths easily. <--> george donnelly - http://zettai.net/ - "We Love Newbies" :) Zope Hosting - Dynamic Website Design - Search Engine Promotion Yahoo, AIM: zettainet - ICQ: 51907738 - e:george@zettai.net _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
