[Zope] GUF problems

First, understand that Zope refuses to run as superuser.  Since you are
logged on as superuser, when you run Zope it will change its effective
userid to 'nobody' (by default).

Second, App/manage.dtml *isn't in Data.fs*, so transactions don't affect it.
You need to look in your filesystem, under the Zope installation directory,
in 'lib/python/App/'.  Check the ownership and permissions on file
'manage.dtml', and make sure user 'nobody' can read it.

Cheers,

Evan @ 4-am
