[Zope] Advice needed: completely scrubbing zope from win2k server

[Phil Harris]

Changing the Zope port when running as an NT service is straightforward.

All you have to do is find the registry entry under

hklm/currentcontrolset/services/<servicename>/parameters/start

where <servicename> is the name you gave your Zope install (default is
'website'), from the default to something along the lines of:

<zopedir>/bin/python.exe <zopedir>/z2.py -S -X -w <http port> -f <ftp por=
t>

by changing http port there it will run as a service and on any port you
specify quite happily.

This is my registry key:

"C:\ZOPE24~1\bin\python.exe" "C:\ZOPE24~1\z2.py" -S -X -w 9080 -f 9021

if that helps at all.
