[Zope] Apache-Squid-Zope, Squid-Apache-Zope.. or just Squid-Z ope?

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

Pyredir (freshmeat.net/projects/pyredir) could theoretically be hacked to
allow for easier ways to setup redirector-based virtual hosting mechanisms,
though the rewrite syntax for its pyredir.conf file is actually easier than
mod_rewrite's rules.

If there is interest, I'll post some examples of redirector rules tomorrow.

Ok. Squid-Zope looks like the way to go, although it's not that common up to
this moment. (I wonder whether a more straight way to handle virtual
domains, just as simple as it is in Apache, would make it more popular than
other solutions.)

I've suceeded at using Squid-Zope with a single domain, but never had enough
time to investigate pyredir to enable url rewrites, using W2K. I'd really
appreciate if anyone post a how-to on this particular subject.
