> I have a Zope site setup on a machine where I work and use domain
> forwarding to forward the domain for this site to that machine.  I am
> using Zope by itself - not behind an apache web server and I'm trying
> to get Zope to rewrite the URLS so that the domain name for the site
> appears in the browser address bar and not the domain name for the
> server.  This is what my setup looks like:
> 
> Zope 2.6
> physical host: http://wabisabi.swarthmore.edu:9673
> virutal host: http://www.sohc4.net
> I have setup domain forwarding at my domain registrar (domain direct)
> to forward www.sohc4.net to wabisabi.swarthmore.edu:9673
> 
> I have a folder off the Zope Root, sohc4.net, that I want to use as he
> site root for www.sohc4.net.
> 
> I have added a VHM to the Zope Root and have requests for
> wabisabi.swarthmore.edu:9673 using sohc4.net as the root.
> 
> I've tried, using the documentation I can find, to setup the proper
> mappings in the VHM, but I have not been successful.
> 
> Can someone give me some tips on getting this working?  If my end
> desire is to setup simple domain forwarding for two domains to use the
> same Zope host, should I be using Apache as the http listener instead
> of Zope?  Do I need to change something in my domain forwarding
> configuration - like setting it to go to the path where I want
> sohc4.net to be 'rooted'?
> 
> Thanks for any help.
