Hi Pekka,

I'm G1 user and a fan of you. Since I found this www 1 year ago, I include it into my favorites www and view time after time!

Let me have a stupid question! I appreciate your EE very much, and try to build up my own www with it. In your EE requirement list, the 1st is "Apache WWW server". Just counsult my friend and he told me Apache is a Linux application. Does it mean that I can't run it in Win2000?

Sorry to bother you this question, cause I really love your fantastic EE!

Good day!

Apache can run on Windows platforms. See the following url for more information:

I have run Apache on Windows 2000 and now in Windows XP which I use for developing EE. One note though: It is better/easier to install PHP into it as CGI and not as module. Also, Apache 2.0 has various problems in Windows, so I recommend installing 1.3.
