[Zope] Zope and Debian

[Glyph Lefkowitz]

I was using Zope just fine with my redhat install, but for a variety of
reasons I needed to upgrade to Debian.  Zope installed fine (can't wait to
see new packages for the recently released upgrade ^_^) but I'm curious as
to how one is supposed to use the netscape in debian to edit zope sites.

I am currently using Netscape 4.61, as that's the recommended default, but
this is also true of 4.08, 4.61, and 4.7.

If I go to my RedHat box, sitting right next door, and use any of these
versions of netscape, everything works fine.

The problem is: I go to my site.  I click on a folder.  I select 'add dtml
method' from the menu.  I type anything for the title and ID: then I hit
'add', or 'add and edit'.

The status bar changes to

"Connect: Host www.twistedmatrix.com:8080 contacted.  Watiting for
reply..."

but nothing happens after that.

This is not a general problem with HTTP POST, as it only happens when I
access Zope (and only the 'add dtml method' and 'add dtml document'
screens -- I can add users and edit documents just fine!)

Mozilla on the same machine works fine.  When netscape fails, no line ever
shows up in /var/lib/zope/var/Z2.log, so I assume it's never sending any
query.

The client is helix.twistedmatrix.com, the server is
www.twistedmatrix.com.

Lynx also doesn't work, but I won't get into that =)
