Ok, I've upgraded to 2.7.3, but my problem hasn't gone away.
There are no entries being written to the zope log.

Here are my running processes.

[root at inet root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope start
Starting zope: . . daemon process started, pid=7413

[root at inet root]# ps -e | grep "python"
 7412 ?        00:00:00 python
 7413 ?        00:00:00 python

However, again, about 10 minutes later: no more python processes running!

Any other ideas?
