Problemastic OS check in Windows startup command
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMO-4968
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4968
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: commands
    Affects Versions: 2.1.4
            Reporter: Jack Cai
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 2.2, 3.0


A user reported that the startup command failed due to OS check failue, even though he is running Windows XP - which is a supported OS. The problem is that the startup command does an exact match of the OS env var against "Windows_NT", while in this user's case, the OS env var is "WINNT 5.1".

Maven has a similar problem: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3354

I'd suggest that we remove the OS check code.
