Installing Plone on Windows Server 2006 : dream or reality ?

Hello,

I would like to install Plone on my research centre, to
update our web with
new services. As network administrator, I have been working
mainly with
Microsoft since 1996 and I really would enjoy discovering
free software.

I had a look at the documentation on
"plone.org", it seems quite difficult
to implement Plone + Zope + Python + SMF on a Windows Server
2003 (in
French). 

Of course, online comments about Plone mainly report bugs or
problems, so I
would like to know if it is possible to install those
programs without
problems and... alone, not knowing at all the Plone
functions ?

We have two servers, one with SQL and private databases, the
other with DNS,
web and mail services.
I see the Plone Installer for Windows includes Zope 2.9.3
with hotfix, but
what are the recommendations for the Firewall, databases,
etc... ?

Thank you for your attention and answer,
Kind regards,

Marie-Anne Delahaut
