Alternatively, as multiple Zope Servers on one machine will be quite a resource eater, (probably 20 main users) is it possible to have just one Zope Server and multiple instances of the database/CMF/Plone for the users?
Sure. Although it gets tricky if you want to have different product versions for them.
All user instances and content including the database entries would need to be accounted for in and installed in their own home directories to allow us to control and manage each user or groups bandwidth and quota's etc etc.
Sligthly more tricky, but still possible. Especially bandwidth can be problematic, but if you have separate domains for each user and have an apache-server that regulates the bandwidth per domain it should be fine. You would also have to mount a separate ZODB for each user. But having one instance per user is probably eaasier. -- Lennart Regebro, Nuxeo http://www.nuxeo.com/ CPS Content Management http://www.cps-project.org/
