| all,
| 
| one of our people just came to me asking me about 
| "Project Management Software" and my immediate reaction was a "?"
| and "oh no Microsoft" ....
| 
| I havent got a clue and dont even know where to start ....
| Most of the client workstations are NT based but if I can I would
| run parts of the software (databse based???) on a linux server
| where people can attach to (using some kind of client).

I would start by looking at your requirements;

* What type of project management do you need? 
eg. Scheduling, collaboration, tracking

* What type of project are you trying to manage?
eg. construction, software development. Is there
something industry specific out there already?

* Your budget =)

There are a lot of free web based packages you could use
or adapt. Bugzilla is handy and could be adapted as
a problem reporting/tracking tool for most projects.
If you are doing software development, I would give
SourceForge a go.

Of course you could also roll your own using some sort
of script/db hybrid. (php/mysql, asp/sqlserver)
