Hello,

I'm looking for a free patch/rack tool where i can keep track of all
the patches etc.

I found already some products like patchmaker, rackview,rackmonkey but
they don't work under Xampp. Anybody have an idea?

Thanks

Rackview (http://rackview.sourceforge.net/) is probably the closest thing
to what you need. It does not explicitly state XAMPP as its best
environment but I can imagine being written in Perl, rackview should be
able to run on Win machine for as long as you get all the required
libraries installed (like GD that can be installed on Win machine:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gd.htm)
I assume you know about Apache and MySQL on Windows.

I can also imagine that if you stick with table view instead of graphics
you can skip the GD.

Good luck!
