Here's some things I encountered: 1) It gave me no choice as to where I want GnuWin32 installed. So it then created a Programs directory in the root of C:. Not very nice to force an install location like that IMO. It did allow me to select a location for the ViewCVS directory. 2) I run both Apache and IIS on our box. I use and prefer Apache for most things, but there are few things (like our corporate virus scanner) that are IIS only. It would seem the installer finds IIS first and stops there. Can we be given a choice of server if more than one is detected? 3) Currently I am also getting an error during the "Finishing installatio" phase that says: "Python.exe - Entry Point Not Found - The procedure entry point CryptEnumProvidersW could not be located in the dynamic link library ADVAPI32.DLL". This could be due to the fact I haven't rebooted the machine since installing Python and the extra path hasn't taken effect. I can't reboot the machine right now, so I can't easily tell if that's the problem. If there is something to tell me how to set it up manually in Apache, can you point me to it. I can't find anything but don't mind editing config files by hand at all. Thanks for doing this. CH
