Our shop has just done this. It went very smoothly. We moved from NT 4.0
to a Sun Solaris. What a difference! It is much faster and it NEVER goes
down.
I was not directly involved with the code modifications but it took about a
week to successfuly migrate our source code from NT to the UNIX. There were
a few modifications with regard to the consistent use of file names (case
sensitivity) and modification of slashes in directory strings.
The UNIX file handling from Studio is different and there is a small
learning curve in the use of UNIX if your programers are not familiar with
this.
I have no desire to return to NT as a server for a WEB site.
