I reckon that it is up to the ZWiki product to change ownership appropriately if the page is edited. The zope security system can't possibly know about what constitutes editing executable content and what does not. Only a product author can know that. As a general princliple, executable content should never be editable by users with lower permissions than the owner of the content. This is the same principle system administrators use on a Unix system to know never to have a root-owned file that is executable by root, and also writable by others. The problem with applying this principle in Zope is that the roles and permissions system is very expressive, and it is complex to know when one user has lower permissions than another. However... the zope security system could help with this. Here's an ill thought out idea for your consideration :-) Have a function that takes two sets of permissions, and returns the intersection of these sets. Then, use some sort of local permissions combination to make the wiki page that's been edited have the resultant lowest-common-denominator permissions, even for the owner. Make this kind of thing a standard feature of the security system, and write some guidelines to help out authors of products that allow editing content that is also executable. -- Steve Alexander Software Engineer Cat-Box limited http://www.cat-box.net ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

No. DTML will never have access to the replaced method.
Also, will folders have replaceableness for their contents? (so you

I don't understand your first question, but the answer to the second is
"yes" regardless. :-) You would set index_html.__replaceable__ =

No, and I think it's really not confusing, since it's quite a strange

Think of it more like Python instances vs. classes. Setting
__replaceable__=REPLACEABLE on a ZClass method is like setting a class
attribute in Python, then overriding it in an instance is like setting
an instance attribute. If you set __replaceable__=REPLACEABLE on an

then "foo.a = boo". The reference to "bar" disappears without any

Chris Withers wrote: Steve Alexander said he was going to have a think, but I haven't heard anything since he mentioned it... I'll have to start running a Kibo-bot soon :-) I've got as far as defining the difference between the two acquisition behaviours. Warning: The following goes into some detail about acquisition algebras. There are lots of nested parentheses with letters in them. Let's say we have the following object tree. The upper-case letters represent names, not identity. The lower-case letters represent identity. / |-Aa | |-B b | |-Xx | |-P p1 | |-Y y | |-Pp0 Let's consider the path X.Y.A.B.P in both types of acquisition. Containment first: Start at the root. Look for X. Find X at x. Look for Y in x. Find Y at y. Look for A in y. Not found, so look for A in x. Not found, so look for A in /. Found as a. Look for B in a. Found as b. Look for P in b. Not found, so look for P in a. Not found, so look for P in /. Found as p0. Context first Start at the root. Look for X. Find X at x. Look for Y in x. Find Y at y. Look for A in y. Not found, so look for A in x. Not found, so look for A in /. Found as a. Look for B in a. Found as b. Look for P in b. Not found, so look for P in a. Not found, so look for P in y. Not found, so look for P in x. Found as p1. The acquisition algebra is based on the "of" operator: (object of context). The difference in algebra is that with containment-first, as you build up the expression, you add to it using the last object you searched as the context part of the expression. With conext-first, you need to add the whole expression so far as the context part of the expression. Containment first: Start at the root. (X of /) Look for X. Find X at x. (Y of X) of (X of /) Look for Y in x. Find Y at y. (A of /) of ((Y of X) of (X of /)) Look for A in y. Not found, so look for A in x. Not found, so look for A in /. Found as a. (B of A) of ((A of /) of ((Y of X) of (X of /))) Look for B in a. Found as b. (P of /) of ((B of A) of ((A of /) of ((Y of X) of (X of / Look for P in b. Not found, so look for P in a. Not found, so look for P in /. Found as p0. Context first Start at the root. (X of /) Look for X. Find X at x. (Y of (X of /)) of (X of /) Look for Y in x. Find Y at y. (A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of /)) Look for A in y. Not found, so look for A in x. Not found, so look for A in /. Found as a. (B of (A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of /))) of ((A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of /))) Look for B in a. Found as b.

Not found, so look for P in a. Not found, so look for P in y. Not found, so look for P in x. Found as p1. I just put that in to give Chris a fright :-) You can see from this that the algorithm is more complex. Acrually, it can be rather simplified, because what I've written out in full above contains many internal repetitions. In C terms, these become pointers to the same acquisition wrapper. So the following... (P of (B of (A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of /))) of ((A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of / of (B of (A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of /))) of ((A of (Y of (X of /))) of ((Y of (X of /)) of (X of /))) ...is really this: ((P of q) of q) where q is ((B of r) of r) where r is ((A of s) of s) where s is ((Y of t) of t) where t is (X of /) I also wonder whether we need the second part of all the context-first expansions above. That is, whether (P of q) will do, instead of ((P of q) of q). To see if the simplification works, let's take the example of acquiring X.Y in the tree: / |-X |-Y Containment first: (X of /) (Y of X) of (X of /) Simplified Context first: (X of /) (Y of (X of /)) Applying this simplification to my larger example above, we get for the following: Simplified Context first Start at the root. (X of /) Look for X. Find X at x. (Y of (X of /)) Look for Y in x. Find Y at y. (A of (Y of (X of /))) Look for A in y. Not found, so look for A in x. Not found, so look for A in /. Found as a. (B of (A of (Y of (X of /))) Look for B in a. Found as b. (P of (B of (A of (Y of (X of /))) Look for P in b. Not found, so look for P in a. Not found, so look for P in y.

They picked the wrong free UNIX platform. Linux has a whole lot of machines installed, but, not too many of them would be deployed in an Enterprise environment, where people would be happy to pay money for licenses. Whilst I would ordinarily agree with some ofthis, in the case of Sybase, I have to disagree. I work primarily at a company called Hewlett Packard, not exactly a small company. We have service contracts with Sybase on NT and HP-UX (suprise). After over six months of trying to get sybase to work with us on getting the appropriate libraries to us to compile the SybaseDA on HP-UX, and then being told it must be faulty programming on the part of whomever developed the adapter, we gave up. This experience has left a real bad taste in my mouth regarding sybase. The good side of the coin, is that we dumped Sybase for the, and moved to straight ZODB. :) The claim that Linux is not deployed in Enterprise environments is uninformed at best. The most recent announcement came from Google, which claims 4000+ Linux servers. Clearly an enterpise environment. ( http://www.internetwk.com/lead/lead060100.htm ) HP is migrating many, many Enterprise Servers from NT and even HPUX to Linux boxes, in addition to porting Linux to their hardware (PA-RISC), and their tools to Linux. I am personally aware of over 600 machines deployed in that particular enterprise, and the number literally grows weekly. And, of course, there is IBM. An OS heavily promoted by one specific individual who doesn't really believe in commercial software doesn't seem like the ultimate platform to aim high-priced internet application software at. While I don't mean any offense, your characterization here is both unwarranted and unfounded. ESR and Linus (not sure exactly whom you refer to) both believe in commercial software just fine. In addition, if you look at the largest promoters of Linux, you will not find any one individual. Rather, you will find an array of companies, of all sizes; from ISP's to ol' Big Blue. IBM, for example, is in the process of porting most everything they have to Linux. And they do it for commercial reasons. I think you'll find that Sybase the DB will still be released for Linux, just not their Internet Application Suite, which is a different kettle of fish.

I created a form to allow users to change their own passwords. I
hate the idea of giving them all "Manage Users" permissions, but ok
whatever. But "acl_users.manage_users('Change', REQUEST, RESPONSE)"
won't work unless the user has "View Management Screens" permissions.
Not only does this make no sense, because the procedure doesn't involve
viewing management screens, but it would be absolute insanity to give
all of my users those permissions, because then they could go in and
delete users at will! There has to be a way to do this, but can I get
around this problem without additional products (i.e. Login Manager)?

I have created a new ZClass which contains a dtml method that first clones an object and then edits it's properties: dtml-with manage_clone(News, REQUEST['new_id'], REQUEST)" dtml-call manage_changeProperties( title=REQUEST['new_title'], blah blah blah, )" /dtml-with When I fill out the 'add' form and try to create a new instance I am presented with the error message (as a user with a manager role): You are not authorized to access manage_changeProperties I am able to successfully create an instance if I am the superuser.

RE: [Zope] Python Method question
Do you mean you want to use a Python Method (in the sense of a methodish object instantiated from Evan Simpson's Python Method Product) from a Python Product?

[Zope] threading
Just a simple question. According to Amos' How-To: Thread Safety in Zope 2, what is mutable global or shared variables?? What is the scope of such global variables? Zope wide? module wide?

[Zope] Zope is slow on a windows 2000 server
Hello, I've been using Zope on a Linux box without any problem this last month. I now have to move the Zope server to it's final location, which is a Windows 2000 server (it's not my choice ;-( I am trying to get the user authenticated based on his IP address to allow everybody on the subnet we are here to access the Zope server, but not other IPs. This works fine except it is really slow (about 5 seconds to go to an object to start downloading). I've tried it on a clean Win2k box to check if I had a problem with my configuration, but it didn't change anything. Here are the basic operations I did. First create a local role "test" in / that has the same authorization as anonymous. Then disable any authorization for this Anonymous user. Create a user in acl_user which don't have a password but has a domain entry 192.168.0.* and the role "test". Now when I connect from the 192.168.0. subnet, I have access to the Zope server, but it is very slow to answer. When I add a user that has to log in (password instead of IP check), it goes much faster. I am using Zope 2.2.0 with the built-in Medusa web server. As I am with the Win2000 questions, is there a way to configure IIS to behave like Apache an the rewrite rules? Thank you for your help.

ImageFile objects do not (like ZODB stored Image objects) generate an IMG tag

With an ImageFile object, you need to construct the tag yourself. If this
class has an instance foo, with this ImageFile attribute chooser, and the
instance foo is stored in the root of your Zope ZODB, you need to point the
browser to http://yoursever/foo/chooser. So your DTML needs to generate the
following HTML:
img src="http://yoursever/foo/chooser"
I don't know enough about your DTML, but if it is another attribute of the
same class, you could use one of the URLx REQUEST variables or something to
construct the URL for the image. Also, absolute_url() called on the foo
instance may also work for a base URL.
Hope this helps.

# Create the method in the .py Class File
chooserIcon=ImageFile('images/chooserIcon.gif',globals()),
# Call from the .dtml File
img src="dtml-var absolute_url/chooserIcon" border=0
absolute_url() works and the URL points correctly to
http://myserver/foo/chooserIcon, but if I type in that URL directly, I get
a "Not Found" error as though the method does not exist. I've double-checked
that the image is there and named correctly, so it's not a syntax thing.
Perhaps I need to convert it to an "Image" object something like below?

misc_ is a root level object. Using absolute_url you are acquiring it into
your Instance URL, which is not necessary (and will hamper off-server
caching). Use dtml-SCRIPT_NAME; instead (which will give you the absolute url
of the root object in all cases):

So if a Word file contains the word "Fred", then any search for "Fred" would include that file in the list of documents returned. I have done something similar. I created a ZClass subclassing CatalogAware and File. I added a property called text which is text indexed in a catalog. When a Word document is added, a method I created uses the wvHtml utility to convert the Word document to text and store it in the text property. It has kind of a kludgey implementation at the moment, mostly because I want to create a Python wrapper around the wv library, but it's documentation is sketchy and I have other priorities at the moment. It does work though and lets you search Word documents using a ZCatalog quite effectively (although it only works for Word docs).

RE: [Zope] Authentification with the SAM of NT (Security Account Manager)
First, there is no such work as authentification. :-) OK, now that I got that off my chest, take a look at jcNTUserFolder (http://www.zope.org/Members/jephte/jcNTUserFolder), smbUserFolder (http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/smbUserFolder), and Tres Seaver's Integrating Login Manager with SMB (http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/LoginManager_and_SMB). Any of these will work, depending on your situation. jcNTUserFolder is best if your Zope server runs on Windows. smbUserFolder or Tres' howto work best if your Zope server runs on anything else. -Original Message- From: Vincent [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 07, 2000 2:10 PM To: [Zope Org] (E-mail) Subject: [Zope] Authentification with the SAM of NT (Security Account Manager) Hi, Does anyone know if Zope allows authentification of a user with the SAM (Security Account Manager) of Windows NT ?

[Zope] Success! ZPoPyDA 0.6.1 works!
First, I would like to say thanks to everyone, who gave me a hand with this,
especially [EMAIL PROTECTED] I learned a lot, and I am more comfortable
with my system than ever.
Below is a little note and question for Federico, who provided the patch that got the
whole thing going again.
Thanks again,

[Zope] PTK Member-Folder Object Properties (phew!)
For each member in the Portal ToolKit, a folder is created in the folder 'Members', i.e: ZopeRoot/Portal/Members/member_name I've created a ZClass called Customize that has several properties, and I've added an instance of Customize (and called each instance Customize) in each member's folder. i.e.: /Portal/Members/member_name/Customize What I need is a way to access the value of these properties for any given member that is logged in at the moment. In other words, I can do this... dtml-var "_.getattr(Members.member1.Customize, 'some_property')" and get the value that I need for member1. I want the equivalent of replacing 'member1' with AUTHENTICATED_USER.getName()...I tried substuting it in and building a string with it, but that causes getattr to complain about strings not having the needed property.

I am writing a python product and want to display a GIF file in some of
the manage_pages. It is not meant to be the "icon" property of the
class, just an image to be included in DTML. I included it in my class
as follows:
chooser = ImageFile('images/chooser.gif',globals()),
but when I call it in DTML (dtml-var chooser) I get the following:
ImageFile instance at 014F1D90
I thought maybe I could use an instance of the Image class:
chooser = OFS.Image('images/chooser.gif',globals()),
but this doesn't seem to work.
How do you create an instance of an Image in a Python Product?
ImageFile objects do not (like ZODB stored Image objects) generate an IMG
tag when called. Image object, when called, generate an IMG tag that
points the browser to the correct address to retrieve tha actual image.
With an ImageFile object, you need to construct the tag yourself. If this
class has an instance foo, with this ImageFile attribute chooser, and the
instance foo is stored in the root of your Zope ZODB, you need to point
the browser to http://yoursever/foo/chooser. So your DTML needs to
generate the following HTML:
img src="http://yoursever/foo/chooser"
I don't know enough about your DTML, but if it is another attribute of the
same class, you could use one of the URLx REQUEST variables or something
to construct the URL for the image. Also, absolute_url() called on the foo
instance may also work for a base URL.
Hope this helps.
Okay, I've done the following:
# Create the method in the .py Class File
chooserIcon=ImageFile('images/chooserIcon.gif',globals()),
# Call from the .dtml File img src="dtml-var absolute_url/chooserIcon"
border=0
absolute_url() works and the URL points correctly to
http://myserver/foo/chooserIcon, but if I type in that URL directly, I get
a "Not Found" error as though the method does not exist. I've double-checked
that the image is there and named correctly, so it's not a syntax thing.
Perhaps I need to convert it to an "Image" object something like below?
# this doesn't work but illustrates the idea chooserIcon = Image(
ImageFile('images/chooserIcon.gif',globals() )
Help! =:)
Hmm.. This is how Product Icons are stored, that is, as ImageFile objects. At
product init time, a ImageFile objetcs is created for the Product icon and
stroed in the special misc_ structure for later access.
Have a look through the Product initialisation code, which is started up in
OFS/Application.py::install_products().

err no. Read again... "not deployed in Enterprise environment, where people
would be happy to pay money for..." as opposed to deployed where people
want stuff for free - or as free as they can get it.
You may want to re-read the article. They _did_ pay for Redhat, even though they
didn't _have_ to; though they didn't
have to pay for licenses for all 4K+ machines. In fact, even at HP, many of my users
prefer to go buy a RedHat boxed
set, rather than use one of my CDs or install over the network.
I would say people _wanting_ to pay for a product they can get for free trumps those
who 'have to' pay for it. :^)
BTW, most people in enterprise situations are not _happy_ to pay large licensing fees,
it is just that they can afford
it, and have in the past accepted it as mandatory.
Face it if you're
doing web stuff using Zope (or anything else), you're not looking to go and
pay Sybase for something just as good, with a hefty price-tag.
I use Zope not because it is free, but because it is _good_. I use it because I like
it, it gets the job done, and does
it well. Given that in my case we _have_ Sybase (IOW, it cost me nothing more for
Sybase), and I use Zope instead your
argument falls short. I have customers and clients who have paid for [Oracle,
Informix, Sybase] Licenses, and some of
them have dropped it and now use Zope/ZODB.
You still
have to pay developers, and 'commercial' stuff usually attracts people at
twice the rate of the going Open Source developers.
Not anymore, but I think we are using different terminology.

One wonders if Oracle's Linux product has actually recouped them the
development costs. Most of the larger Linux promoters are trying to get a
leg into the 'smaller' market that was dominated by NT. If they can offer
their products on hardware that doesn't cost more than a house, then they
have opened a new market. Linux is obviously a means to an end here. They're
trying to make a sale, they don't particularly care about Linux.
Which is, of course, irrelevant. If they support it, they support it. I consider it a
given that any of the commercial
outfits are getting into Linux for financial/commercial reasons.
Now, I'll leave the list alone on this subject, I'm sure they'll appreciate it.
