The installation instructions look quite complex. Is there a simple install on a single machine just to try it out?

I have setup an environment to load test a NLB .NET 2.0 shopping cart. I would like to use a Windows 2000 server as the primary controller. Before I go down this road, am I going to have problems? I know the docs says use Window 2003 as the primary controller, so that you can use DNS and DHCP for the private network. Regards, --SteveMc

Can you be kind enough to post also a way to modify WCAT configuration file for testing a website's performance? Thank you in advance
