I've used Envy variants in Windows for years w/o problems. I am using BPL 15 modified under MS VC++ 6.0 The main things to watch for is have routines to reboot/restart the mahines and mud incase of a hard crash. I have a port monitor that watches for inactivity on ports. If my port is not in use for x time it dows a restart. I also use pif files to autorun the mud for normal resets. *nix has an advantage in system recovery but win 9x/nt can be stable and useful. Make sure all security patches are applied (just like *nix) I like the ease of use and compilation environment. --Dave +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
