Compatibility

I am finally getting a new computer! As it will be used to telecommute, the OS is Win 2003 Server rather than the Win 98SE that I had. Has NWC been tried by anybody on Win 2003 Server? Or NWC2?

G'day John,
I haven't tried it but as 2k3 server is really just a fat version of XP you shouldn't have any problems given that NWC works on XP.

For the most part, if it works on XP it will work on 2k3 server - there are some notable exceptions to this but they are deliberate cripplings - E.G. Stomps BackupMyPc - used to be BackupExec. Does not work on 2k3 server because it's been deliberately coded not to. Just one example of many...

I'm not aware of any products that just don't work by accident.

I have used the demo version (1.75) on 2003 server at work, and can confirm that I have had no problems, although I haven't used it that much.
