    Can Linux / Windows Servers Talk

    I would like to know if a script can be written that would allow a Linux server that will host a video sharing website to communicate with a windows server.

    The video encoder that I prefer to use will only work in a windows enviorment

    The windows server would pass off the converted video to the Linux server

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions

    Sure they can. At least, on some levels.
    For example: FTP

    Linux uploads file;
    Windows has scheduled task every x minutes to look up new files;
    Once new file has been found and proccessed, it goes back to Linux through FTP...

    This is just one way of many.

    Trgards,

    Thanks for the reply Aleks, I guess that was to vague, I am looking for someone who can write and install a script that will transfer video files after they have been encoded from a website on a windows server to a website running a youtube clone script on a linux server that will stream the videos. The youtube script is already installed and running on the linux box.
    I'm clueless on this stuff......

    Well, that can be also done, but don't think anyone will do it for free. Post your request in a good forum:

    http://www.webhostingtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=146

    and I will send you an offer for it.

    Regards,
    Aleks
