[Zope] How to make broken images/links broken!

[Chris Withers]

I'd change to using 2.3 with the Cache management stuff and leave IIS totally
out of the loop.

Then everyone gets what they expect and you get nice, fast-served pages :-)

cheers,

Chris

PS: Maybe having ZServer behind Apache would be needed for a decent solution.
