Do you find a lot of customers asking for or using FrontPage extensiosns on Linux? I'm about a week away from launch and I'm trying to decide if it would be worthwile to offer FP as an option.

Def 06-03-2002, 03:35 PM Approximately 30% of our Linux customers use FP extensions. projo 06-03-2002, 03:38 PM In my experience FP is very popular on smaller sites. Larger site tend to call for something more robust. JSpired 06-03-2002, 03:44 PM Somewhere around 25% of our users require FrontPage extensions. All of those persons are running small, family or hobby type sites. projo 06-03-2002, 04:01 PM Hi WiredDog, we seem to be in sync. Do you also have two kids and a minivan? :D alchiba 06-03-2002, 04:13 PM 25%-30% of my customers want FrontPage. Two kids and an SUV. Play golf? :D gnuguy 06-03-2002, 05:13 PM Originally posted by alchiba Two kids and an SUV. Play golf? :D One kid and a sports car and I snowboard. Wow, I was expecting something like 10%-15%. Not a high percentage, but I think I'll offer it anyway. Also with my shell accounts I offer the Usual Suspects - Perl, PHP, Python, and Ruby. But not gcc. I have my users in a chroot environment, and I would have to install gcc into that to make it work. That would eat a lot of disk space let alone all the security issues around installing a c/c++ compiler. JSpired 06-07-2002, 04:40 PM Originally posted by projo Hi WiredDog, we seem to be in sync.

I'm down to the compiler not finding certain include files. |
