I'm going to share a Plone 2 / Zope 2.7.0 install with multiple administrators.
We want our data and acl_users to be separate from each other (although we would all be happy with the same selection of Zope add-on products). If my Zope hangs, the other administrators and their users should not be affected.
What is the best way to do this? Is anyone doing it already? I tried reading about ZEO, but I haven't been able to find a comprehensive how-to that is current and applies to the Plone/Zope install.
you can build a single zope software home and then use the mkzopeinstance.py script to create multiple instance homes where each person can have their own zope instance, data, products, config etc. products can be put in a central products folder outside of the instance homes and symlinked into each instance as needed. ZEO is for when you want multiple zope client apps to serve the same data, which does not sounds like what you want to do. hth <--> george donnelly ~ http://www.zettai.net/ ~ "Quality Zope Hosting" Shared and Dedicated Zope Hosting ~ Zope Servers ~ Zope Websites Yahoo, AIM: zettainet ~ ICQ: 51907738 ~ Sales (USA): 1-866-967-3669
