DbMan on Win NT?
Well, I don't know if anyone here has experience in running the script on an NT machine. Before I try it, I wanted to ask you. So do you have? Is it possible?

see ya Jimmy

I haven't used NT, but there are a couple of testimonials at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/scripts/forum/resources/Forum5/HTML/000850.html

Thanks for your answer.
Well, I wanted to ask one more thing. What should I do, if my virtual NT server only allows pl extensions?
I mean, is there much to change in the code?
And what do I have to do with the first line in each cgi file?
NT doesn't need that path...

thnx Jimmy

You can rename db.cgi to db.pl. No problem. Just change the name of the file and the line that refers to it in the default.cfg file.

$db_script_url = $db_dir_url . "/db.pl";

You don't have to do anything to the first line of the db.cgi script. NT will just ignore it.
