Thanks Phil,
but that didn't do it for me at that time. IIRC I forgot one path
at first, but corrected that later. Anyway, when grepping
around I found out that the full path to the old install
was contained in every .pyc file and python hadn't bothered
to recreate them when I started the new zope.
But even when I deleted all *.pyc I couldn't get loginmanager
going at all (zope/loginmanager/zpopyda all pretended to work, 
but postgres never saw any sql-query and all logins failed).

All in all it was very wired and made me think that this 
"cloning" might be tricky and ask for a "standart procedure".


cheers,
