No. I will want to make some dual boot, but that's not the focus of my mission :) > Opengroupware emulates to an extent the Exchange WebDAV protocol, so > Outlook thinks its talking to an exchange server.

Ok should have added something to my scope/requirments... All GPL... not paying for software, if I wanted to do that I'd just licence MS Exchange server (thou I think I've already done that anyway). Sure in the future if I have a new requirment that doesn't already exist then I'm happy to pay a developer when I can aford it. (isn't that how this GPL stuff works :) > Still however, I'm gonna throw in the obligatory distro plug > even though > you've said not to.

I just said that the distro I'm choosing/using is RH9 and I'm not changing... In truth I really said that becuase I didn't want this to become another war of 'which distro is best for the job' :) I've done a fair bit with Debian 3 so I'm also comfortable with your suggestion... As it's your suggestion and your favouriate perhaps you'd like to be first on the 'dinner at Don's place' list and come and set it up for us?! :) I think I can find enough hardware around for us to set up another Deb 3 server. Cheers Don
