Is there anyway to regain 'root' privs from inside a zope product?
Using the -u flag to start causes the privs to be permanently gone because
z2.py uses setuid + setgid (and python doesn't seem to define sete[ug]id, at
least not on my system).
Other than running zope as root permanently (which I really would like to
avoid), does anyone have any quick ideas on how to achieve this?
I saw people asking about building 'admin' systems using Zope, this isn't
going to be trivially possible without super user privs.
