From the linked page: "TUX has never been an integrated part of the official Linux kernel, although it has been shipped in some distributions, notably Red Hat, SuSE and Fedora."


Sure. My point is that Microsoft isn't the entity to put a web server (or at least components of one) in the kernel. Some may look at it and laugh about how silly that idea is, but in reality many have tried it.


Yep. Another reason folks are against systemd, as it also includes a baked-in http server. Systemd is also poised to become a veritable "second kernel" on linux systems and nobody seems to care enough to stop it.


Isn't systemd an user space process ?


Yes.

It's still on track to becoming a second kernel.


I agree that systemd is a bad idea in the sense that they are doing too much all at once. It is a fine level of arrogance to assume that there wont be problems along the way :P That being said this thread is about the poor souls who are running IIS servers.
