Hi all

I've tried everything that I can imagine to convince my *#~!!& SUN Solaris
to do Zope/Python with multitasking / threading / LWP /... NO CHANCE!!!!

After about 6+ Months of on & off trying I'm giving up. I'll install my test
and production system on xxxBSD or Linux (even NT runns without problems!).

It's probably easier to convince my ISP of adopting Linux than finding a
patch! So to all Solaris hosts out there good luck, you'll need it! The
problem lies in the conjunction of the systems. Solaris, Python and Zope
just dont mix with Solaris threading.

My production system runs faster on my laptop on Win2k -with multitaskig-
than on my high power SUN 19" rack with 4 Processors an 4GB RAM! On that
note I'll just go and believe that Solaris is the wrong thing to do when
thinking about Zope!!

Best regards

Oliver Erlewein
