Linux Subsystem on Windows Server 2016

[KingCollins]

Hey guys, quick question, has the Linux subsystem finally come to Windows Server? Specifically Windows Server 2016?

 

This guy seems to think so, but I cannot make out whether he's using Server or Consumer:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-on-server

That's an official Doc from Microsoft so it should work. From what I can tell you just have to be on the right build version of Server 2016.

i haven't seen anything yet, the only way to get them is via the windows store, 2016 doesn't have that...

it's probably possible to get them via the powershell but screwing around with OS's files isn't a great idea...
