Thanks Patrick. I thought it was still in Beta. How can I get it ? I
guess I just email Kevin offline.

Actually, now that I look at the CIS site [1] again it is the C-Gate
software reference that mentions unix. It says -

"The C-Gate software package is a framework for anyone who wants to
develop C-Bus compatible application software and/or interfaces with
other building management systems. This open architecture approach
allows support applications for almost any operating system, such as
Unix and Apple Mac, to be developed."

This doesn't say that C-Gate runs on Unix. It says that Unix/Apple OS's
can interface to it.

The "C-Bus Server Software - C-Gate" glossy brochure [2] just say
it
runs on a PC. No OS is specified.

Has anybody used C-Gate ? Does C-Gate run on windows only ? The download
is windows. BTW - How much is it ?
