[Zope] Zope and IIS (again)

[Robert Allyn]

Igor,

I don't know how to do it in ISA server, but using Apache I there are two commands
ProxyPass /<optional path/> http://www.mydomain.org:8060/
ProxyPassReverse /<optional path/> http://www.mydomain.org:8060/

The ProxyPassReverse takes care of changing the URL's on the page for images etc.  See if ISA server has a similar feature.  I have had no problems with this.  For Zope you will need a SiteRoot object.  Again see http://www.zope.org/Members/anser/apache_zserver for more info.
