Fedora directory users - Mar 2006 - Running Fedora on windows

Hi all,
 I''m new at This group and Fedora. I was looking for some directory
servers on the
 web and I''ve seen the Fedora directory server. I wonder whether the
Fedora
 directory server is available on windows or not. That is, can i install and run
Fedora
 on a Windows machine? Thanks in advance.

We do not have Windows binaries.  You could probably build it on 
Windows, but it will involve quite a bit of Makefile hacking.  If you 
just want to run it on a PC, it''s probably much easier to configure
your
PC for dual boot, and install Fedora Core on it, and then install Fedora 
DS.  I''ve done this a few times - there are even tools which will allow
you to do a non-destructive resize of your existing Windows partition if 
you need to.

Have you tried using CoLinux? It allows running Linux inside Windows,
so it is an alternative to using dual boot.
