Shibboleth Developers

[Chad La Joie <>]

The first question is whether you intended to deploy the 64 bit version 
of Windows.  If not then the answer is yes, this will work, no problem. 
 Otherwise....

The IdP is just a Java webapp; the normal deployment stack being a JVM, 
Apache webserver, and Tomcat.  I know that Sun has JVMs for 64-bit Win 
2003.  Apache, however, does not.  So you'd need to consider running 
Tomcat behind IIS, or in a standalone mode.  Running behind IIS is the 
easiest and if you take a look at the user list archives for Sept and 
Oct you'll see some traffic on doing that.
