I understand what Ramon thinks needs to be done there are a couple of
gotchas here however in getting this all setup insatlled which would of
probably been easier done the Zope3 way but I figure this was started
with Zope2. 

Basically you can't use Python 2.5 to install any of this if you are
trying and must you Python 2.4, you must also install PyOrbit for
Python2.4 if you don't already have that. After that you can change the
admin password by using parts/zope2/utilities/zpasswd.py -u admin -p
blah access and copying this file into the parts/instance directory.

I notice there is an AttributeError for portal_groups which is a little
strange, I'm not going to waste time working through it until I ask a
couple of questions. Is there an irc channel everyone hangs out in
because I have questions and it'll just be quicker to run through a
discussion that way. Or a hitlist of things I should know about this
install. In the meantime i'm gonna take this stuff and see how easy it
would be to put into a Zope3/Plone3 environment with a self contained
Python and all that. I'm a little slow as i'm recovering from some bone
graft surgery but I'll try to getup to speed here.
