[Zope] Sharing Database connections and/or methods between Zo pes?

[Doug Hellmann]

Allen,

If you're still trying to share that database among multiple Zope servers, 
you should check out the XMLRPCProxy product (available on Zope.org at 
http://www.zope.org/Members/dshaw/XMLRPCProxy).  It hooks two Zope servers 
together in a way that lets you call methods of an object that lives on a 
remote server as though the object was local.

You could set up one server to host the database, and share it by passing 
your calls through the proxy.
