And then, when you finally have everything you need the tools don't quite get the job done. What is freeware costing you? Although it is true many tasks can be completed with freeware, developers and IT professionals inevitably run into problems collecting, updating, integrating and using these tools. These and other problems end up consuming valuable time, at a cost far more than the license and support fees that were originally "saved." 22/12/2005 9:30:48 AM - Are you looking for a low cost, light weight UNIX to Windows migration solution? Perhaps you want to implement a proof of concept before comitting corporate resources to a whole scale migration effort or maybe you just want your UNIX application running quickly within the Windows environment. With MKS and VC++ Express you can make this happen today! MKS Toolkit v9.0p2 fully supports the new line of Microsoft compilers including the free Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express). With Express and the MKS porting and migration products you can quickly and easily set up a powerful, fully featured, cross-platform software development, build and debugging environment on Windows. Expand that to include MKS Toolkit for Professional Developers or MKS Toolkit for Enterprise Developers and the Microsoft Platform SDK and you are now equipped to port business critical, or just your favourite, UNIX and Linux tools, utilities and applications to Windows. MKS Toolkit is the leader in UNIX/Windows interoperability and together with the Microsoft Visual Studio product line we deliver a high performance, low cost, cross-platform development platform accessible to everyone. http://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/whatsnew_tk.htm 29/06/2005 2:02:53 PM - July 5, 2005 - MKS Toolkit 9.0 makes it possible for users to instantly be productive in both 32 and 64-bit Windows environments while doing their development, testing, or system administration tasks.

If, however, you are planning on using MKS Secure Shell with such a cluster, there are additional steps that need to be taken. Installing MKS Toolkit on Clustered Nodes (PDF - http://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/wp/ar_cluster.pdf) will walk through those steps as well as the rationale for their need.
