I'm assuming that's humor which I am unable to translate.  :)

But since you mention Windows, I did try (a couple years ago I think) to run
the bzr smart server on a dedicated port behind an sshd on Windows.  It
turned out to be a non-viable mess.  Getting an ssd clone to play nice with
a Windows Domain Server does not appear to be especially well documented and
is definitely not fun.  It can be done, of course, but it's a headache for
Microsoft Certified IT folks who already have enough problems.  One benefit
of getting it running was that it suddenly became much easier for me to
convince my IT department to allow Linux boxes on their network!   :D
