[Zope] VirtualHostMonster question

[kent@springfed.com]

OK, I'll look at mod_rewrite.

I was hoping I could do what I want to do 
from Zope and not have to muck with my gateway
and Apache.

Thanks,
Kent

Why not the other way around, i.e. forward requests with apache?
Seek zope.org for a howto (search for something like
apache+mod_rewrite+proxypass).
Then you just need an additional access rule which causes apache=
 not to
proxy requests to http://myserver:80/TUTOS into zope.
If you don't find how to do that in a howto on zope.org, consult=
 the
mod_rewrite documentation on apache.org, you need to put a [L]=
 after the
access rule which matches TUTOS to indicate the rewrite engine to=
 stop
there.

Oh, and it seems you misunderstand what VirtualHostMonster is=
 supposed
to do: it just uses information of the request URI to "correct"=
 the URIs
which are autogenerated by zope.


HTH,
