Better: use hostname, not localhost-alias or ip. So you can assign this
Hostname
on the local machine with 127.0.0.1 and on the remote machine with the
network
interfaces ip-address. Just for performance...

I have to look further, but I think a good solution for local
configuration
issues would be a mountable database for specific sections (like
products
and some folders with database-connections and such)
Imagine a situation where different instances of zope, connected via zeo
have 
to use different database-connections (odbc for windows, any other for
unix).
