| Highly unusual! After I get my A and B boxes sorted, I just might give it a try. People have been dreaming about just such a shell for some years. However, I'll be shocked if it works well! Thanks for the head's up, Southern Man!

| Installing  EDIT: It works, but I forgot to install make. I wanna see if I can take any source, compile it, and it will run.

| It works pretty well. I was able to get Apache compiled, installed, and running, but I can't access it. Could be my firewall. I'm currently messing around with it some more.

| Cygwin has been around for some time now, and is pretty good on Windows. There are a few issues with Cygwin, so it's not perfect, but it's fairly good... However, do be careful if you decide to run SSHD under Cygwin. There are issues with the level of access you'll end up with. AidanII

| I was using that back when I had NT4. My brother passed it on to me, he got it to compile c/c++. It worked good for me, I have it backed up on a cd somewhere but I can't find it. I guess I'l dl it again, thanks for the link.
