Greetings.
I heard there is a software out in the market to host ASP pages on unix platform.
Can someone fill me in on that, or refer to me relevant URLs?
Thanx. Rgds.

I've heard that Chilisoft ASP isn't really as good as normal ASP though. Some incompatibilities and stuff like that.

heard the same thing, but as it is really the only way to do it, you have to put up with it. I 've been meaning to have a look at it, but haven't got round to it yet. yet One more to my list.
It doesn't support CDONTS.NewMail (for emailing) or the Scripting.FileSystemObject . I don't know how it handles ADO and other database stuff.

theres a couple of projects, but most of em are things that let your program it in asp, then it translates it to php or perl. try a search on freshmeat.net

oh yea, i dont think any of them support COM components (DLL's), cause thats microsofty proprietary crap that no one on the planet could figure out.
