Running S+ on Unix from an NT platform??

[Anthony Rossini]

If you mean, log in to the NT machine from Unix, I think the answer is NO.  You can't log in to an NT machine from Unix, unless perhaps if it is running NT server.  You MIGHT be able to log in to a 2k machine, but I'm not certain of that.

If you mean to log in to the Unix machine from NT, that works and works fairly simply.  You just need the commandline tools to remote-login to the Unix machine from a Command Shell ("command.exe" or the cygwin bash shell).
