> I'm building a WAP service using Zope and basic HTTP authentication.
I've noticed that when refused a URL because user is unauthorised some
WAP cell phones display prompts like
> 'Authentication required for Zope' to the user. I would like to
change this prompt to match my product's name (otherwise users are
likely to become confused) but I can't quite

ZPublisher/HTTPResponse.py and restarting Zope.
> 2) Changing the Root folder title property.

> Am I missing something? Can anybody suggest a solution?
