Actually I tried to use the Virtual Host Monster with my test site wich has
the latest
Zope version, but I couldn't get it work as I wanted: one or more virtual
websites
 distributed through your Zope (not in one folder as many How-Tos do it). I
found
How-Tos wich talk about using it in conjunction with Apache but I won't
install it.
Is Apache necessary to get it work?.

Actually, I don't like to install products that do virtual hosting. If Zope
has a functionality
that does it, why don't use it? Or if this product is necesary to do virtual
hosting, then
why is it not included with Zope? I also read the documents inside this
product and found
that they are the same as the ones here:
http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/SiteAccess2/vhosting
and if you see, they also recommend this old-style method as you call it.
Anyway, if you
point me to the right way, I could try your advice.

Thanks for your reply,
Josef.
