: I have quite long since forgotten what I learned, except that
: GNU/Linux or one of the BSD variants make much better
: Web servers than Windows ever will (especially if you hate
: being forced into using a GUI to maintain everything).

I will leave the claim about "better" web servers, as that seems to be
entirely subjective (what's "better").

So, instead, how about an entirely objective test?
I challenge you to name one thing that you can do via the GUI tools that you
can't do from a command line when administering an IIS server (I assume
that's what you mean when you refer to "windows web servers", rather than
something like Apache which is preety similar on Windows to its *nix
counterpart).

If you can't, then stop trolling.

Cheers
Ken
