Will Xitami run on XP ?=20
Which instal version should I use ?

I have been running Xitami for some years currently 2.5b4 on my desktop =
(Windows 98) for testing cgi programs for use on my lawnbowls.com and =
other sites I am developing.
I want to set Xitami up similarly on my new laptop (Windows XP)

I note that the 'hosts' file on XP appears twice on XP (but in =
subdirectories not directly in the Windows directory)..

C:\WINDOWS\I386\HOSTS                           (there is also an =
encoded file LMHOST.SA_)
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts      (there is also a file =
imhosts.sam)

I have set up my desktop Windows 98 computer so that I can toggle the =
content of 'c:\Windows\hosts' according to whether I am online or =
running Xitami offline.=20

-ie=20

If I am online it contains..
127.0.0.1 pop3.norton.antivirus  # Added by Norton AntiVirus for e-Mail =
scanning
127.0.0.1 pop3.spa.norton.antivirus  # Added by Norton AntiVirus for =
e-Mail scanning


If I am offline it contains..
127.0.0.1 pop3.norton.antivirus  # Added by Norton AntiVirus for e-Mail =
scanning
127.0.0.1 pop3.spa.norton.antivirus  # Added by Norton AntiVirus for =
e-Mail scanning
127.0.0.1 lawnbowls.com

(so http:\\lawnbowls.com runs on my computer rather than from the online =
site)

I want to duplicate this toggle system on the XP Laptop, but do not know =
which of these files need amending for the purpose.
Can you tell me which of the above files on the XP require amending ?

Thank you
Lesley
