Are both pythons hung? Were you interfering with a db that the Zope has
open or somesuch? Have you tried the monitor_client.py inside
ZServer/medusa? I run lots of things beside my win32 Zope and haven't
locked up Zope2+CVS as yet. Running other python processes shouldn't do
anything nasty. I assume that the binary python is 1.5.2 my RH6.0 came
with 1.5.1, but I replaced it.
