Q: Does the Pivote server have to be unix/linux or can it run in
windows as long as Perl 5 is on the machine?

A: Should be fine on Windows - no LINUX dependencies that we can think
of - although file paths may be different, 'fraid you'll have to try
it and see!

(We'll try and copy into the group all PIVOTE answers we give out by
email, and we'll then try and get them to raise the questions here! )

To add to David's response, I can confirm that PIVOTE does run fine on
Windows. It has been installed and used extensively on an IIS server,
although the file path setup is different to an Apache setup.

a note:

in your IIS config (if that's what you're using on Windows), just make
sure to use perl.exe in your mapping... so:

C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe "%s" %s

for *.pl files, etc...

(to be able to do this, we made cgi-bin a virtual directory, and set
that mapping in the Properties menu)
