Carl,
Just talked to the powers that be at CGC. They gave permission to add =
CGC
to your list.
Computer Guidance, Inc.
Using Red Hat (7.2) as a File Server to a mostly MS shop. This was set =
up
(by one of our IT folks) as an experiment (evaluation) some months and
continues to be very successful. Next week will add a second Red Hat =
(9.0)
file server.
Several of our engineers use Linux (various distros) on their desktop
machine as a matter of personal preference.
I am using Red Hat (8.0) as both a file server (for my XP and 2K =
machines)
and as a desktop, allowing me to stretch my comfort zone to Linux. I =
am
also (time permitting) moving some FoxPro (6.0) applications to Linux =
using
Wine. We use FoxPro 7.0 for out MS development but because of the
licensing issues with FoxPro 7.0 (and 8.0) on non MS operating system, =
our
FoxPro/Linux effort is restricted to FoxPro 6.0.
Also, I am playing with (evaluating) LTSP. A cursory look at the =
FoxPro 7.0
and 8.0 licensing restrictions gives rise to the Idea of running a =
FoxPro
7.0 (or 8.0) runtime on an LTSP server (no local processing on the =
clients),
serving 100+ clients will require only one FoxPro license for the LTSP =
box.
Hope this helps
George
