I wonder about the viability of running one of the ASP things on your server to support ASP for those dumb people who insist on using it. You may get the scripting language but don't most developers also take advantage of various COM (or whatever they are called now) objects in their scripts and these only work under Windows? What good is the scripting language part when the building blocks themselves won't run? After looking into this a year or so ago that is the conclusion I came to at least...

ASP on FreeBSD/Apache - most recent, stable and viable solution?
This may be better posted to the Apache list, but that has been filling up with windows implementations as of late... Have recently been inundated with requests for ASP on our FreeBSD/Apache servers (probably because the Win2K solutions are incredibly unreliable/vulnerability prone). What is the latest and most stable solution to providing ASP functionality on FreeBSD 4.x stable with Apache 1.3x (currently we are running with SSL, PHP, etc... in case there are any conflicts that we need to be aware of). I see the perl port in the ports, anyone with experience with that? thanks Dave ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Isn't asp part of these unreliable/vulnerability prone Win2K solutions? yes. its like customers asking for frontpage support on unix because windows is unreliable. Logic would indicate that maybe they shouldn't be using frontpage then, but when everyone with a copy of frontpage is a developer...

Anything you can do in asp that you can't do in php/perl/whatever scripting language? The goal being to allow developers who want to use ASP because they are incapable of grasping perl/PHP/etc... to develop or migrate sites to our unix based servers. You are preaching to the choir as we use Perl/PHP to accomplish all our server based programing and scripting. Telling clients however that they need to migrate their code over to Perl/PHP just means we lose them to someone supporting windows/ASP.

Supposedly this product will work natively on FreeBSD. http://www.halcyonsoft.com/products.asp?s=1 I belive Chili!Soft ASP has been bought out by Sun and renamed Sun ONE, so you may want to look into that product. It runs on Linux so it might work with FreeBSD. - Original Message - From: Dave [Hawk-Systems] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 18, 2003 6:41 AM Subject: ASP on FreeBSD/Apache - most recent, stable and viable solution?

It runs on Linux so it might work with FreeBSD. Previous attempts to look at chilisoft put me at the same conclusion, and at $500 per license, and not listing FreeBSD as a supported OS, pretty hefty for something that may or may not work for our chosen OS. that being said, if it works and is stable, $500 would be worth it on a select machine or two. thanks for the link.
