Thanks for the reply. The use case is that my client wants to block a range of IP addresses from being able to view their site. So I need to access the originating IP address and filter appropriately. I've written a few custom zope products before, but I've not done anything that really modifies zope's behaviour on every request - just on requests for the specific objects I'm publishing. So I'm familiar with the request object, but I don't know how to intercept *every* request. Are there any global request life-cycle hooks? If you can point me to those that would be a great help.
