I checked my /etc/services file and it isn't showing anything connected to
port 8080.  Is there somewhere else I need to check?

It says: "telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused"

Then I added the "/usr/local/Zope-2.1.3-src/start &" line to my
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file, rebooted, did a "ps -ax" to see what processes were
running, saw that "z2.py -D" (in there 2 times).

So, I tried to telnet in agian and this time it said "Connected to
192.168.1.100"

Next I tried to connect to "http://192.168.1.100:8080/manage" with my
browser...

IT WORKED!!!!

Thanks a million Curtis!  I guess I just needed to add the line to my
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file and reboot!  YAY!

OK, now I need to get to work.

Eric.
