Now that I have ZEO2 working, I have a lot of new details to get up to speed on. Apparently when starting a ZEO client, by default the current state of the client's python products modules are not updated to the storage server. This makes sense when multiple clients are connecting to a storage. I gather that I have to use FORCE_PRODUCT_LOAD on my ZEO client (same Zope install, same machine) to get products reloaded. I really don't want to use environment variables, though. Is there a way to pass this on the command line to z2.py instead? Thanks.
