In your zope directory, copy zserver.zcml.in to zserver.zcml.
Then, edit zserver.zcml. At the end of the file, you'll find lines like 
this:

      <startup:addServer type = "Browser" port = "9000" verbose="true"/>

You can edit these, or remove these to remove servers you don't want 
running.

Eventually, this kind of configuration will not be done in zcml, but in 
the same kind of configuration file that Zope 2.7 is getting.

Yes, if you don't know it intimately. It might eat all your CPU, for 
example.
