OK I was wondering if I could run ASP pages on a unix operating system with
apache server..   Any ideas, as far as I know it is possible to load Front
Page extensions on a unix machine. But have no clue for ASP (active server
pages). Please let me know. Thanks

I'd bet a search on 'Unix near "active server pages"' on AltaVista would
give you the name of the company faster than posting to this
newsgroup...

Well not a stupid question, just stupid technology (flame bait ?).

IMHO I'd use asp2php to convert the asp stuff to PHP and then continue
to use PHP for my technology. (www.php.net)

Check out www.chilisoft.com
they have ASP for some unix systems (however currently only Solaris &
Linux that I know of.)
Good Luck!

Share what you know. Learn what you don't.

It depends on what your ASP pages do.  There are a variety of ways
to embed programming in web pages on unix.   Server-side includes
with stock apache might be enough if you aren't doing anything
complicated.  PHP can do about anything, but it is a different
language.  Mod_perl with Apache::ASP might do the trick, although
it isn't going to deal with COM objects under unix.
