If you can't do ZEO magic, you'll have to go about it some RPC (remote 
procedure call) way. Currently XML-RPC support is good in Zope. There's 
an XMLRPC Method product for the calling, and Zope can do the serving 
automagically. If you're looking for something more transparent, I seem 
to remember something like that existing some time ago. Whether it still 
does...

Maybe XMLRPC Proxy is what I was thinking of, but probably not. Maybe 
somebody with a better memory can inform.
