Based on my experience, i wouldn't advice running the venue server on a windows machine. In our case the continuous operation of the server periodically causes severe crashes of windows, making the whole system inoperatebale. This can then only be resolved by completely turning off the machine and restart it again. As in normal cases you don't want to do this every 3 to 4 days. It is not acceptable at least in our case. Therefore we are running the venue server on Fedora Core 1 machine without any problems so far.

I'm setting up a venue server, which we do want to bridge. However we do not wish to have the venue server on a Linux machine, since that requires Redhat 7.3 and long outdated security packages. We have tried to set it up on a Mandrake 9 unsuccessfully, but my question is this: Can we have the venue server on a windows machine, and the bridge server on a linux machine WITHOUT setting up the whole AG on the linux machine? Just having the bridgeserver.py file on that machine? At least without having to use the outdated security packages? I know it is a pretty long shot... But worth asking, I think. Thank you in advance, Benedikt.
