[Zope] can't log in to manage

[Chris McDonough]

I really don't know how the RPM is put together so I can't give you
explicit instructions.  I gotta find the time someday to look at the
RPMs and figure out how they're put together.  In the mean time, follow
the instructions in
http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/zopeinstall/ZOPE-INSTALL-HOWTO to
install Zope.  They assume you're *not* installing from an RPM, but from
a .tar.gz binary release.
