[Zope] Newbie needs help

[Ausum Studio]

To change the port number in Zope is way simple, and whether there aren't
app scripts calling explicitly urls with its current port, everything will
work fine. Provided Zope was installed using defaults, you just find the
"z2.py" in the Zope installation folder, and edit the line "HTTP_PORT=8080"
to the port number that you want. Then you kill Zope, and restart it using

/start &
