What are the requirements for the unix hosts, if I want to run DRBD MC
on 'the other' OS. :).

I tested firing up DMC-0.8.2.jar on a WIN box, and found I had to
download drbd-mc-0.8.2.tar.gz and copy drbd-gui-helper to /usr/local/bin/
on the unix hosts. Is thaty all that's needed?. Also when adding cluster 
hosts, the interface does not initially accept host IP addresses - in 
fact it tried to do DNS resolution on the IP address, which failed. (These 
hosts are on an internal network with no internal network dns).

One can click through this and eventually the host is seen, but it's
awkward. I bailed out after it told me my corosync.conf differed btw.
cluster hosts (only whitespace differences), as I don't want to risk
having it make config. changes on me. It's interesting though. :)
 
For my comfort level, if I want to use it, I`ll need to test with an
unconfigured cluster.
