You best use Python 2.1.3 - there is some bug in 2.1.1 that can cause
serious problems for Zope.  You can install Zope 2.5.1 and it will come with
Python 2.1.3.  Then you will be able to run code written for Python 2.1x.

Before you do, you need to make sure you can get versions of all your
products, etc, that will work with the newer version of Python.
