The reason I need to specify the name of the socket is because I'm running 
under OS/2 which handles sockets slightly differently and whereas the 
default socket name works under Unix, it doesn't under OS/2. The '-s' 
parameter to zdctl looks as though it might provide a convenient way of 
specifying the socket name, but I can't figure out where to invoke it.

Maybe I can specfify socket name in zope.conf... I don't know.

A recent OS/2 port of Python (2.3.4) provides support for AF_UNIX sockets 
but they need to by identified by OS/2 naming conventions. All I want to 
do is see how well this support works.
