I'm sorry to bring up something like this, but I really need help.

I need to port an app from windows to linux. However, since all my development is under windows I would like to compile under windows and run it on a (or better the only) linux machine in the company. The linux machine is running Mandriva 2006 and does absolutely nothing at the moment other than serve a remote disk for backups. The app uses Synapse for networking and TDbf for it's data bank. I have never used Linux and have no idea about how it works.

So here are my questions:
1) How do I (cross)compile a linux app from windows? (I will do a command line compile) 2) I keep reading here about clib that seems like something bad. How do I avoid using this?
3) Is Mandriva ok, or should I install something like Umbatu?

regards,
Andreas
