Unless I'm misunderstanding your question, none at all. Zope doesn't act
as a front end for managing and publishing things on a file system
(unless you want it to, that is). By default Zope stores all objects in
the ZODB (Zope Object Database) which is backed by the Data.fs file in
the zope/var directory. Zope publishes objects in the ZODB, not files
from the filesystem.
