You might want to see if you can get XSP running using Linux emulation. (This may take lots of work, and I have no real experience with this sort of thing - my skills in Linux emulation are focused on getting games to run (-: ). > Are there any other ASP .NET servers out there for FreeBSD?

Also, try asking on freebsd-questions@freebsd.org as there are much more knowledgeable people over there. All the information above came from a thirty-second think and a few web searches :-) so it could well be wrong. HTH, David Adam zanchey@ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au
