Re: [Zope] securing webdav
Hi Sascha. I realize that you can forward a port this way but this requires providing server accounts to users in addition to zope accounts. scponly is a product to remove other shell functionality - so you can hand out accounts in a more untrusted situation. Either way, handing out server accounts is not something I favor. I am looking for either for a proper zope solution or a way of using the apache proxy to accomplish this. David is right, I have also seen very little about securing webdav outside of ZServerSSL and m2crypto. Anyone happy with the results? I am not even certain if it works with 2.8. What about sftp? Anyone using Zope Corp's sftp package that can comment? I believe twisted is in the mix for Zope3 and sftp. Can anyone comment on this or whether this solution has some potential for Zope2. I think the Zope Corp idea was twisted obtaining the data on port and supplying the data to zope in the background.

Oh, its not that hard either, you can use apache as proxy for any host:port combination. That means if you really want to use the separate zope webdav daemon, you can use another hostname, say https://dav.yourdomain.com/ to proxy to zopeserver:webdavport or https://yourdomain.com:8443/ - which works too (and has the advantage of keeping the ssl-certificate valid) ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Re: [Zope] securing webdav
Hi Tino. Over HTTP is not the problem. It is more on normally https you are rewriting your requests to port 443 with apache proxy and your usual webdav server is port 1980 that is not secure. I am in the same boat as David. I haven't got my webdav running securely at this point either. The only thing I have heard about is the running m2crypto with ZServerSSL but I have read mixed reviews so have been reluctant to install it. Either way I am looking for something also for securing webdav and ftp as well. As far as sftp I know that Zope Corp has a product in CVS but I have not heard whether it works or if anyone is using it. It relies on on the deprecated Twisted 1.1.1 which is at least 2 or 3 years old. I read earlier today of a product called scponly that could help but it looks like it has had some history of vulnerability so not so sure about this solution at this point either.
