[Zope] Zope on SuSE 8.2 -- What initial user name and password do Iuse?

[Jerry Westrick]

Dear SuSE users...

please look at the /usr/share/doc/packages/readme.suse
this is the place where the SuSE packagers place comments on the way
the've configured software for you....

The user name and password are listed there, along with the instructions
to change it as soon as posible!


Jerry Westrick.

P.S.  It's always a good idea to check the /usr/share/doc/packages/xxx
dirs for a readme.suse file...  (as noted in the description of the
package when you loaded it with YAST2!)

Two of them I managed to connect straight to by setting up a new password with the zpasswd.py script in /opt/zope/utilities on Suse. The 3rd installation was a real bind. Nothing I did seemed to cure it. My final solution was to download the latest stable version of Zope, remove the original zope package with yast and reinstall the downloaded version.

Not a big problem as there is a start script in the Zope directory. If I ever get round to it, I will copy the rczope script from one of my other machines.
