I have never used win2k for my servers, but an associate who did used it in the past talled me bad things about.

Maybe you should better try linux if you want to use apache, php, cgi and mysql

Do you mean 64 bit proccessor?

Windows do not fully support 64bit architecture yet, unix system do that since the 70's

I believe that windows s**ks anyway, and if you are not forced to use them (eg. because you use ASP or msSQL) then you don't really need them.

Linux is very faster, and even if it is much harder to set it up, I think it worths the effort.

The guy that I am working with is a bit expensive (as he is working on big projects for universities here in Greece), but I would recommend you to try it yourself using something like XAMPP Visit through proxy.

It is very easy to install, and it has all the modules that you'll need configured and ready to run.

Meth0d you could honestly teach your self linux in 1day. Its that easy to use. But to the answer to your question. www.dslwebserver.com Visit through proxy has some nice windows 2000 server guides.

With that quide i had set a server with win2k.
The only thing i think that it doesn't explain is how to link php with apache.
I am not sure about that because it's been a long time since i set the server.
