As helphand said already, you're going to want to install Apache on the machine that you are going to be doing your windows work. I've done that exact same thing, but I'm using it as an intranet at work, and as a development box at home for a couple of different websites I'm working on.

The three things you need to remember to do are:

• Make sure you have your shebang line set to your Perl directory under windows, not Unix. I got stung by that initially.
• Set up a virtual directory for your work.
• Read your logs. I dragged a folder to my desktop so I can get to the logs quickly if I'm getting an error from the server.

In all it's a snap and if you haven't set it up before there are loads of windows tutorials out there to help out.

HTH!
