I'm still running Windows 2000 Advanced Server on my server system.  As long
as it continues to run, I've got no reason to upgrade it.  It's solid and
does what I need it to.

We still support one application server running (requiring) Windows 2000,
DB2 v6.1, Apache 2.2.x, Mod_Rexx, and Lotus Notes 4.6.7a also runs on the
same server.

I was not able to coax DB2 NT Services to start properly on any Windows
higher than 2000. With that failed, I never attempted Lotus Notes as we had
to leave the server on Windows 2000.

I was under the impression that without Mod_ooRexx, we were stuck running
ooRexx 3.2. Then someone posted to RexxLA that they had Mod_Rexx running
with a ooRexx 4.x version. Thus I decided to give it a try.

I am most grateful for Mark's effort to tweak the compiler settings to
successfully build the latest ooRexx 4.1.3 allowing Windows 2000 support.
Thank you!

Also, thank you for assisting with getting ooRexx 4.x to build/compile on
Linux shared web hosting that does not have root permissions. As well, in
the shared web hosting environment we were stuck on ooRexx 3.2.

I appreciate your willingness to assist with non center of the road
configurations... very much! :-)

Blessings,
