class=266182920-30112005><FONT face=Arial size=2>lternatively, as multiple Zope
Servers on one machine will be quite a resource eater, (probably 20 main users)
is it possible to have just one Zope Server and multiple instances of the
database/CMF/Plone for the users? All user instances and content including the
database entries would need to be accounted for in and installed in their
own home directories to allow us to control and manage each user or
groups bandwidth and quota's etc etc.</FONT></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>

so, is there a how-to or something I have not found yet or some advice would be

instances or multiple user configurations in any detail.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
