[Zope] problems with top-level user folders under zope 2.3

[Jens Vagelpohl]

the old method, creating a text file called 'access' in your zope
installation directory, still works.

 $ cd <my_zope_root>
 $ echo superuser:123 >access
 $ ./stop
 $ ./start

now you can log in using superuser as name and 123 as password. the
restarting is necessary so that zope reads the file.
