IIS shouldn't care. As gitweb is obviously not working with activeperl I'm not sure what point there is in continuing, unless you plan to submit a patch. I'd find out where it's supported and use it there. As -| forks, it would surprise me if it works on windows. There's a whole Win32::Fork module just to simulate Unix forking on windows. Mike
