Thanks. I can reproduce this.

Most people use (poorly documented :() zeo configuration files, and
the command-line interface lacks tests. :( I'll fix this bug in the
next release.
(I have a long term project to write decent docs.)

In the mean time, I suggest using a ZEO configuration file. A
configuration file corresponding to the options you used is:

  <zeo>
    address run/zeo.socket
  </zeo>

  <filestorage>
     path myDB.fs.zodb
  </filestorage>

When running runzeo, use the -C option to specify a configuration file.
