Thank
you very much James and John!
The whole issue of XP support is very murky, thanks to
Microsoft.
No 7.1.1 is not
supported on XP. That much is clear, as John said.
And 7.1.3 will support the NetView client, but the
Release Notes make no mention of the server or the standalone version, for a
very good reason.
MS says
XP is not a server platform and therefore no server apps should be installed
on it. That means that they will not support running NetView server or
standalone on XP, even if we do.
Does it run? Well, I have seen it. Can we support it?
That remains to be seen.

Indeed it is.
The good news is that this
is the perfect forum for discussing this.
> Is Windows XP a
supported platform for NetView 7.1.1?
7.1.1 is rather old now....but
it's release notes are here:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/tividd/td/NetView7.1.html
Windows XP is
not mentioned in supported platforms.
NetView 7.1.3, however, does
appear to support XP per its release
