I suspect mod_python is setting up the PYTHONPATH to exclude '.' 
for security reasons (or something).  You may want to move 
wingdbstub.py /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages.

Samba shares usually "just work" but you will need to set up a 
file location map as described in section 3.6.14.3 of the Wing 
IDE manual accessed from the Help menu.
