re: Wiki for Windows
We are running MediaWiki on Windows 2003 with IIS in a virtual machine (ESX Server). The setup was a tad tricky. I did not find the resource you indicated, but instead found several disparate resources, including the guide at MediaWiki itself and had to munge it all together. I finally managed to get it going using our Windows domain logons even. We are not heavy wiki users here (at least yet), but performance is no problem. Bill Mayo ---Original Message--- OK, I'm looking to break the good/fast/cheap rule. Here's the deal: Good in this case means runs on Windows without feature loss. The free Wiki from TWiki.org is written in Perl there's a ready-made Windows installer that includes both Perl and Apache. They also have a ready-made VM that runs Debian Linux. The ready-made TWiki VM version runs about 3x faster than the ready-made Windows version. This can be seen both in browser response time and CPU loading during simple operations.

Re: Wiki for Windows
It really depends on what the users are trying to accomplish. People use the term 'wiki' and they often have a whole set of assumptions that they never actually discuss. What they are looking to accomplish with the tool is the more interesting question then does X wiki product work better then Y wiki product. X May not have the specific feature implemented the originator is actually imaganing a use for.

RE: Wiki for Windows
Yeah, I'm outside of my comfort zone here. SharePoint templates are a
little different than templates as you describe. I just know that we
replaced ScrewTurn with WSS 3.0 and we were much happier. YMMV.

Interesting. There's quite a bit of whining from people who say it
doesn't have it. Maybe they're based on out-dated experiences;
there's certainly enough of that all around. Are there any
publicly-accessible WSS 3.0 wiki demos out there on the web?
It supports SharePoint templates.
Can one do something like {{myTemplate}} or %INCLUDE[myTemplate]% to
dynamically include the contents of one wiki page on another wiki
page? (Such that if the included page is updated, the update shows on
the including page?)
And category-wise, it supports group-based security.
??? Categories are ways to... well, categorize wiki pages. Like this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categorical_index
Perhaps it isn't a wiki for purists - but it does a lot.
Linux does a lot, but saying Linux can do everything Exchange can
do is bogus, too -- but I see that claim all the time from my friends
who are blind zealots for Linux. :-p I believe in calling a spade a
spade, and not calling a duck a spade -- no matter how nice a duck
you may have, it'll still make a lousy spade.

Re: Wiki for Windows
It still doesn't have a WYSIWYG editor (that I've seen), but you can get third-party authentication providers that will let you auth out of ActiveDirectory. BTW I second the recommendation for ScrewTurn. It runs well on a dual 800MHz PIII with 1.5GB of RAM - the machine also runs WSUS 3 and (occasionally) GhostCast. Michael B.

This can be seen both in browser response time and CPU loading during simple operations. TWiki is (out-of-the-box) not a very efficient program. It's a set of CGI scripts and uncached text files. That means every request for a TWiki page requires starting up the Perl runtime, re-compiling the Perl script, re-parsing the wiki page, re-generating the HTML, and then existing. The next page request does it all over again. That said, if the VM solution works for you, why not use it? Has anyone done that, and if so, do you like it? From a wiki user/editor point-of-view, MediaWiki is, hands-down, the best wiki I've used.
