Convert XP to Server

[Saran]

Do you have any experience at setting up and using a server? I have
extensive experience with Novel, Unix, Linux and Windows servers in
small and medium sized networks. They all have advantages and
disadvantages. I would not say one is definitively better than any
other. To limit yourself to one exclusively would be a disservice to
yourself and any clients or employers whose networks you work with.

I agree. Thats why I've been using software like VMWare to run linux and
win2003server on my personal system (emulating real linux and win2003
servers we have at work.) I do this to test many things, without risking
the real servers. This is jsut one way to can take advantage of multiple
OSes.

P.S.
Does Virtual PC support non windows OSes, as well as network bridging?

Had heard earlier that win2000 can be converted to 2000 server with
some registry editing.

Untrue.


Is this applicable for WinXP also?

Yes, it's also untrue of WinXP.
