[Zope] zope2.6 src install problems

[AM]

Hi,

I have python 2.1.3 (with threads) running on a compiled RHAS kernel on 
which I built zope from source using the python2.1 wo_pcgi.py routine. 
My start script looks like the following :

#! /bin/sh
export INSTANCE_HOME="/var/local/zope"
#export ZSYSLOG="/dev/log"

export EVENT_LOG_FILE="/var/log/zope/Zope.log"

cd $INSTANCE_HOME
/usr/bin/env /usr/bin/python2.1 \
   $INSTANCE_HOME/z2.py \
   -D \
   -z /var/local/zope \
   -u zope \
   -X \
   -a 192.168.10.173 \
   -P 192.168.10.173:8000 \
   -f - \
   -p - \
   -m - \
   -M /var/log/zope/detailed.log \
   -l /var/log/zope/zserver.log

However on starting I see the same problem as mentioned here:

http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-coders/2002-October/thread.html#2541

Also when I try to lynx the site I get an IOError could not find 
/...../App/dtml/zope_quick_start.dtml with the whole path which seems 
strange as it should not have been resolved like that.

The reason I dont want to use the binary install is that I dont want 
another version of python floating around and I built and installed 
Py2.1.3 from source for the specific purpose of using it with zope.

A previous message titled start problems lists another funky side 
problem that I observed, using
nmap -vv -sS -p 1-65535 192.168.10.173
I found that zope opens up ports ( a truckload of them ) in the 30000 - 
50000 range.

Dieter suggested :

# You told it to listen only on one interface (i.e. IP address).
# Are you sure, you are using this interface (and not "localhost")?


I made sure that I was using the interface I checked.
Any ideas as to wtf is happening??

TIA
AM
