Without Win Server 2003?

Hi all,

Is it at all possible to run Plesk on Windows XP, without Microsoft Server software? I would like to make some skins on my local machine, but have no real use for purchasing a full Windows Server license.

I wanted to know... is this even possible to run on a simple Windows XP Pro machine with IIS?

Thanks in advance!

Try it. Let us know how it went. XP Pro has a limit on 10 concurrent connections. It can only host one site (as u probably already know this in).
 
I tried, but it won't even go through the installation phase without the "you do not have Windows Server" message. Blah.

Take it easy,
- Miles
