The ZAP-Package works, but both methods for authentication pass-through
(as mentioned in http://www.zope.org/Download/Installation/WebServer)
simply don't work in my case.

Maybe someone can post his setup in httpd.conf together with locations
and access rights of the relevant files. 

The mod_rewrite rules are just a nightmare to understand and pretty soon
I'll get a third party company to configure that in my box -- I'm tired
and can't afford the time to fiddle around.

No offence -- Zope is a great package and I just can't stop working with
it.
But hey -- that's the way the system works: Companies make money with
knowledge and not with stupid, monolithic Software bundles which never
do what you want.
