the location of the ZServer hit log. If the location is a
relative path, then it is assumed to be rooted in the 'var'
directory.
- A progress indicator was added to the database conversion
utility, utilities/bbb.py.
- Cookie support was added to the ZServer FTP server to make
FTP access more compatible with cookie-based authentication.
FTP access compatible with cookie-based authentication.
- ZServer now includes a NT Server, 'ZServer.py' This service
requires the Python win32 extensions. It is not yet complete
and not yet integrated with the Zope installer. It does however
include a large doc string.
- ZServer is offically using the z2.py start script now. The old
start.py and zinit.py were removed. Note: z2.py will call zdaemon.py
for you, if you want to use ZServer in daemon mode.
- Added a 'has_permission' method to user objects. This facilitates
finding out if a user has access to a given object. For example::
<!--#if "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_permissions('View',someObject)"-->
- The product add list is now filtered. This should keep objects out of
the product add list for which the user does not have adequite
permissions. This is implemented with a new method,
'filtered_meta_types' which returns all the meta_types for which a
given user has permissions. Note: Right now ZClasses do not associate
permissions with Products. Thus all Control Panel Products appear in
the product add list, no matter what roles the user has.
Bugs fixed
- Got rid of some DOS line-endings in xmlrpclib.py that caused
install-time module compilation to fail.
- Fixed DOS line-endings in medusa/max_sockets.py
- Fixed a NameError (missing TupleType) definition in
the export/import (copy/paste) machinery.
