SLU runs linux in several cases. Webservers, firewalls, mysql databases. The only problem is it will be very tough to get all the desktops switche= d=20 over. People in the SLU community don't want to be told what to have on their desktops. But they're willing to go with the mainstream marketing solution because that's all they know about. It's kind of a funny catch 2= 2/ grey fuzzy area.=20 Any way, we work for the networking department. We run the servers and manage all the network devices. Pretty much everything except work on=20 users computers, which i've done. I try to stay out of that business as m= uch as I can though.
