I plan a dozen or so sites with the above software.

I have no problems on Windows. The fact that others cannot admin it properly was the issue.

If I were doing just typical freesites and galleries Apache would be a no brainer.

Changed hosts. It's like night and day. Still, it will suck until I can get onto a dedicated and lock it down and add various modules.

I'd be far more comfortable on a dedicated Win2003/IIS6, but just won't get that for a while.

I look forward to getting certified by MS again on Win2003.

I'm a bit of a masochist.
