I've not used Tutos specifically, but I have Squirrelmail (php
webmail) and Zope running at home. Apache sits up front, and proxies
any Zope-related requests to Zope (those Zope-related requests could
be the vast majority of the site, including the site's root
directory). It handles all other requests itself, whether they're
static, cgi, or php. Set up nigh-identically to my documentation at:

http://www.zope.org/Members/mwr/VHosts_With_Zope_Default

I'd imagine any php solution that involves putting Zope ahead of
Apache or PHP in the process chain involves running php from the
command line, cgi-style. If so, I'd expect that to be mind-numbingly
slow under any reasonable load.
