Intel IA32 with Windows

Status

Cactus runs on Intel IA32 using both the Windows NT and Windows 2000 operating systems. Linux on IA32 is described on a separate page.

Cactus requires some care in setting up your environment when used with Windows, in particular it uses the cygwin package to provide a unix-like environment. This is described fully in the file README.NT distributed with Cactus.
