 What is csoft.net running?  And don't say "linux".   If zope was compiled
against different libs then it's quite possible that it won't work.  Like
really
possible...

  You have shell access and there is no means whereby to use either gzip or

  I'm pretty sure that this isn't a bug in the linker but the effects of

how to compile
a program you may need to ask the admin of the remote host to build Zope for
you.
