yes, this fails also here...i will investigate and send a separate
mail...

Will do :)

That's more easy. I found it in various FAQs and Mails:

First edit http.conf and change it like in this example:
--<snip>--

# Load Rewrite-Module

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/ApacheModuleRewrite.dll

# My ZOPE is in installed in cgi-bin/zope/

<Location /cgi-bin/zope/>
AuthType Basic
AuthName Zope-Admin
AuthUserFile "c:/programs/apache/conf/userpass.txt"
require valid-user
</Location>

# Switch Rewrite to on and log accesses

RewriteEngine on
RewriteLog "c:\programs\apache\logs\rewrite.log"
RewriteLogLevel 9

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.+)
RewriteRule ^/zope/(.+) http://horst/cgi-bin/zope.exe/$1
[E=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,T=application/x-httpd-cgi,L]

# The above line must be in ONE line and 'horst' must be your
server-name!
--<snap>--

Now create your Zope Admin Name and Password with htpasswd.exe and
store it in 'c:/programs/apache/conf/userpass.txt'

Now delete in <zope-homedirectory>access the password for the
admin and let the name in it. Example: 'admin:'

That's it. Now Zope 1.x works well with Apache under NT.

Every URL-aesthetics are your turn :)
