I'd be reasonably willing to bet that the GNU revision control system would work under Cygwin ... and reasonably willing to bet that several of the telnet servers for WinNT (such as Ataman(sp?)) would work just fine with Win2k. For all I know, w2k might even ship with a telnet server. Add in that w2k includes reasonably flexible user account setup, permissions handling, etc... this looks doable to me. That being said, I'd still second you on recommending a cheap *nix box. The household server here (486DX4/100) compiles ROM in a reasonable amount of time, and ROM will run on a high-end 386. Much less than the minimums needed for Win2k. As to which is easier to administer ... I'd have to say *nix, though admit to being biased ;-) >Sincerely, >Steven Radziul >Redkoala Mud Codebase Developer Laters, | [EMAIL PROTECTED] - qvid me anxivs svm? - www: rats.darktech.org - KD7KJG | | yet another linux guru in training & reality avoidance therapist at large | | tired of voting for the lesser evil? vote kthulhu & yog-sothoth in 2004! |
