You can basically do the same in Linux. You need to start
zope as root (it switches to nobody or your configured user
from zope.conf) to be able to bind port 80 - and you
have to make sure no other program currently binds there
(as apache or the like)

netstat -lntp  should tell you.

Recommended, however (even more for productive sites)
is at least a simple apache running in front of zope
and zope using unprivilegued port (>1024) and
possibly non privilegued user even on start.
