You don't have to spend a gazillion on a server. You can buy or build a
machine for very little and you can run Linux with Mysql if you don't want
to install on a M$ box. For development purposes, load it on your laptop.
It's not a difficult jump from fox, and I'm not jumping from fox, just
expanding my horizons to include some of the newer stuff. 

For a mom and pop operation, a low end box w/ linux and Mysql is probably a
very good fit. For any client who wants a solution and doesn't care how I
get there, I'll be doing VFP and WC.

I've got a stupid question on this subject.

If I bite the bullet and learn PHP/MySQL so that I can develop solutions for
my clients (mom and pop types).
How do ya'll get around running it on a separate machine ? i.e., server for
mysql, client machine for vfp or php if browser based.

Or lets say they go linux whole hog.
In the old days, you did networking with digiboard multiport boards.
Does linux handle networking now using ethernet cards ? (yep, showing my
ignorance here)

Gotta get some cash flow going and trying to figure out how to do it with
the least amount of expenditures in the beginning.
Most of the clients I know will only have one or two computers and all of
them will balk at the idea of having a server sitting there not being
physically used.

I'd like to thank everyone for helping me with my PHP Configuration issue.
However, nobody stepped forward. Oh well, the good old "scientific method"
came through for me again. I now R a PHP and MySQL programmer! It's funny
how much the syntax of php resembles Fox, and C and java, and . . . .
