[Zope] Authentication by IP address

[Arian de Wit]

Hi All,

I'd like all users browsing the site from 192.168.*.* (i.e. our 
intranet) to see some additional content. I've read and implemented 
the HowTo (although * isn't allowed in IP addresses, apparently) and 
then found via the mailing list archives the "setAuthenticationMode" 
thing to actually make it work, and only then discovered that it 
takes *much* longer for pages to load under this scheme.

Is there some other way to achieve my goal? Basically, I want 
intranet users to see an "update/correct this page" form at the 
bottom of every page, in an effort to help them to help us keep our 
content fresh and accurate.

FYI, I am running Zope 2.4.2 with ZServer on Win2K Server SP2.


Many thanks,

Arian
