More ZEO/ZODB issues

[drs]

I don't seem to be getting any bites on the earlier post ...

so here is my problem in a nutshell. I started a ZEO server on one computer
(\\camus) using

C:\>python C:\Python22\Lib\site-packages\ZEO\start.py -p 9000 C:\db\tmp.fs

that is fine

on another computer I typed the following from a python prompt:

from ZEO import ClientStorage
from ZODB import DB
addr = ('camus', 9000)
storage = ClientStorage.ClientStorage(addr)
db = DB(storage)
conn = db.open()
d = conn.root()
I went to a third computer and did the same.

from either of the clients, I can manipulate d by doing d[key] = value but the other client can't see the change. I have also tried using get_transaction().begin()
d['0'] = 0
get_transaction().commit()
and storage.sync()
but the other client still does not see changes. If, however, the other
client does get_transaction().begin()
d[key] = value
get_transaction().commit()

it will throw an error, but d will contain the changes from the first
client.

Obviously I am not getting something. The only ZEO examples I can find use
BTrees which is not what I want. So, can someone show me how to use a ZEO
server as a simple dictionary?

Thanks,
