[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Windows

[Gord Ripley]

Hi Paul:

My question is a general one only, as I'm installing on Debian here. I realize this is a motherhood issue, but there are some practical reasons for considering Windows. Our campus IT department, for example, runs mostly Windows servers, and has a lot of Windows expertise. They have a few Linux machines, but their forte is definitely Windows/Novell, for better or for worse. I imagine this is not an unusual situation.

It should be possible to run it on windows with some modification, but
if you are running apache/perl/pgsql, why not run it on linux? It
would work much more regularily instead of relying on not-so-good
ports of perl etc. Also, the way of printing would be quite different.
