Thanks for the rundown... it's useful and I will squirrel that away somewhere. One nit: Red Hat uses /etc/rc.d/rc* actually.
Depending on distribution there are tools like chkconfig under RH, or update-rc.d for Debian which make the symlink process easy and self-documenting, automatically creating all the correct kill and start links in one command
Thanks, this is a very useful tip. I did not know about chkconfig.. just read the man page now. Now I just have to remember it's there :-)
*Or*............. just use Windows if you'd rather not be bothered with the learning curve on these kinds of issues.

In the Debain world installing Zope is a trivial as:
# apt-get install zope
