Hi,
Have you had a look at the Config.py file? I believe you can change the
settings there so that the Zope filenames are preserved including the
extensions. More specifically, I am referring to the following section
in Config.py:
# repository file extension handling
ZOPEID = 0 # use ZOPEID (even if it doesn't include an
extension)
MIMETYPE_APPEND = 1 # append extension to ZOPEID according to mimetype
MIMETYPE_REPLACE = 2# remove extension from ZOPEID, then append mime
extension
REPOSITORY_EXTENSIONS = MIMETYPE_REPLACE
Thanks.

In our quest to replace the not-quite-working External File product,
we're looking at ExtFile. However, when I upload files into an
ExtFile, file extensions on the file system are being changed.
test1.txt becomes test1.ksh, test2.doc becomes test2.dot. They have
the correct ID's in the ZMI, but on the file system they now have
something quite new.
Our solution relies on accessing via the ZMI and the file system at
the same time, so the name being changed is somewhat inconvenient in
its unpredictability (and I think Apaches mime types will get nicely
screwed if we start bypassing Zope to get at them). I've done some
poking at the source code but don't see why ExtFile is doing this or
what logic it uses.
I bet someone out there knows.
