Here is the solution to my questions in postings 91060 and 91067:

To get Java Web Start working with Zope, I used the Zope 
product "ExternalFile". 
Therefore I could integrate the jnlp-file with the correct mime type 
that is "application/x-java-jnlp-files". This is not included in the 
ExternalFile product but it is simple to append it in file mime.types 
of the product.

Further description by Craeg K Strong:

Look at http://www.zope.org/Members/arielpartners/ExternalFile/readme

So if you installed Zope at c:\zope
Then you would look for the file

c:\zope\lib\python\Products\ExternalFile\etc\mime.types

And add the line

application/x-java-jnlp-file jnlp # Java webstart files

to it.  Then you restart Zope (or just refresh the ExternalFile 
product)
And you're done!
