Hello,
Windows exist in two Big family :
-XP for Workstation, end user
-Server, for holding infrastructure services (AD/ DHCP / DNS / IAS...)
Radius is an infrastructure service, so this feature is in the Server
family. You can read an introduction here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/bb429524.aspx
Server family is an operating system, that's "looks like" XP, but has much
more feature, and less restrictions, optimized for performance. The license
is much more expensive than a simple XP. This family is intended to run on a
different hardware, a server hardware. If you go on computer manufacturer,
you will see that you have to choose between Workstation and Server type of
products.

I am trying to learn and use a Radius server using my PC which is
running Windows XP.
I can't find any free downloads of a Radius server which are simple
and easy to use and that run on Windows XP.
The Internet Authentication Service (IAS) is available with Windows
Server 2003.
Whilst I understand that "Windows Server 2003" is an operating
system ...
what is it's purpose ?
how does it differ from Windows XP?
what platform does this run ?
would I be able to run "Windows Server 2003" on my pc ?
Thank you for your help.
Pete
