Yes! I'm dying to try it out! My test copy of AOLserver is on Win32, but
the real point for us is to get it running on our Linux boxes as well. I'm
not as skilled at installing & configuring new programs there, and
definitely not when they have to be compiled from C. Do you have a binary
that is compatible with Red Hat Linux 7.0 or 7.1? If not be prepared for
some hand-holding on the C make.
Also do you have an URL for a nsvhr setup doc? I don't know where to begin
on that. But it's a make-or-break issue for us, and a lot of other
companies I'm sure. Any experience I get from doing it on Windows will be
contrib'd back to the group.
