[Xitami] Problem with refresh with php and phpbb

[Warren 'Llama' Ernst]

Tom,

I think it is fair to say that a true "production environment" would NOT be
running on top of Windows 98, and instead would be running on 2000, XP, or
<gasp> 2003 Server. That said, *MY* primary web server, mail server, ftp
server, printer and file sharing server, was a Win98 box for three years up
until about 6 months ago. Both with Xitami and Apache, it really was rock
stable and fast - I'd reboot it once every 60 days or so, just because it
felt right to do so - it was still working dandy.

So really, my comments are just: it works in 98 and I never observed any
security or other issues with it. Of course, my personal site only gets
around 100 web hits a day and less than 500 emails daily too. I bet Win98
would fold under a truly crushing load...
