I'd be curious to see Manfredo's notes on installing DVN on Windows,
even if they're still in Spanish.
Caesar, Linux is definitely the operating system we recommend in our
installer's guide. Specifically, the "system requirements" section
recommends a particular Linux distribution: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
(RHEL) because that's what we run in production.
RHEL costs money, however, so I would recommend trying to install DVN
on CentOS, which is a free rebuild of RHEL.
Also, if you have any trouble installing the DVN software, you are
welcome to open a support ticket by emailing
dvn_s...@help.hmdc.harvard.edu . We can always summarize our
progress for this mailing list later.
Please see the DVN Installer's Guide for details:

I hope this helps,
Phil
