Hi As far as IDS 10.00 is concerned, the supported Windows flavors are Windows 2000, XP and its certified on Windows 2003. Vista is not a supported OS for 10.00.

The IIUG windows of 10.x has a problem in the "main" installer, you need to pick the one in the iif directory. Also, from what I've seen/read, it seems that Vista has a new version of NTFS...

The "offical" port with support will be available in 2Q 2007. But the IIUG windows version of IDS 10 works for evaluation.

Yes, and we are all rebels. If a product works, why wait for its certification ;-)...
