is it not posible to include webmin windows version in perl 5.8 add-on?

I believe that webmin makes explicit use of linux commands and the linux environment within the perl scripts. This would make it unusable under windows. I would like to be wrong about this as webmin is a useful tool.

Because webmin uses the linux environment, it is not (or was not) compatible "out-of-the-box" with XAMPP. I have seen some alpha-like packages to convert webmin for use with XAMPP.

If someone can clarify the status and the intent of webmin working within XAMPP, it would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello every one,

I simply visited the Webmin site http://www.webmin.com and saw they do have a version for Windows.

However, you have to read carefully how to install upon Windows...

Check the menu on the left side " Installing on windows"

Install and enjoy!

Oh ! By the way, a special thanks to all of you posting solutions for problems.

I often find here answer to my questions.
