The company I work for is in the process of going from Win NT 4/2000 (yeah we're up to date) to server 2008. However as I'm sure many of you know the costs are insane with having to re-buy licenses and what not. We've already purchased 2 new servers one of which for SQL Server 2008 and another for files and terminal server. Long story short is there a way to get wine to work with VB.Net applications connecting to SQL Server as well as C++ Apps again connecting to SQL Server. Obviously being able to switch users over to Linux workstations plus eventually all the servers (though I'm sure the later will be a ways off since we just bought the one for SQL). The plan would be to be able to move what we have now over using (hopefully) wine and then all the new stuff creating for the Linux Platform. > I know the fluff for .Net is to be able to program for any platform just wondering how true that really is. I'm guessing it's not but one can really hope. Thanks you for the post. __________________ watch free movies online (http://moviesonlineworld.com)
