Hi Chris,

I'm using LocalFS 1.7rc? and Zope 2.8.? in a Suse system. More

for this case, zope is behind Apache 1.39 with module NTLM,
What are you using to do NTLM?
simply mod_ntlm. I'm following the procedure on this page to do single
sign-on for my Intranet web site:
http://diaryproducts.net/about/cms/zope_plone/zope_plone_sso_single_sign_on_
windows_domain
The software used is also linked from there.
through FastCGI,
Why on earth would you inflict this on yourself? ;-)
Because it is the only way to pass the Apache environmental variable
REMOTE_USER to Zope. This variable is set by Apache after the NTLM
authentication. I suppose PCGI is also possible, but I haven't tried it out.
I'm well aware and concerned that FastCGI has become deprecated for lack of
maintainer. I guess this will be a major upgrade obstacle for those doing
Intranet single sign-on.
Other than that I don't know of any concrete FastCGI problem.
When I access a file in a LocalFS folder I get the following
info, instead
of the pdf file (in this case):
open file '/work/docs/MyFile.PDF', mode 'rb' at 0x42310974.
What's the code and urls you're using to access this?
No code, I get this in the browser just with an url like this:
http://mysite.intranet/docs/MyFile.PDF
/mysite/docs is a LocalFS folder that maps to a (Linux) folder /work/docs.
(/mysite is a zope folder invisible for the users, through some URL
rewriting done in Apache)
The LocalFS folder accessed in the past through
Apache+mod_rewrite without
NTLM+RemoteUserFolder used to work fine.
Interesting...
yes, it was after adding NTLM+FastCGI to Apache+Zope that I got the LocalFS
problems.
So, the combination Apache+NTLM+FastCGI+RemoteUserFolder with
LocalFS isn't
working well.
My guess would be RemoteUserFolder is the cuplrit. What is this
RemoteUserFolder and where did you get it from?
Got it from http://www.zope.org/Members/djay/RemoteUserFolder
although I don't follow your logic since RemoteUF works fine with the rest
of zope.
RUF doesn't do any real authentication, I guess, it simply adds the
REMOTE_USER user to the user folder and lets zope know the user is
authenticated. Simple job I guess.
Cheers,
Fernando
